I'm in the process of taking my old leaf springs out and replacing them with the Hotchkis sport suspension. I'm planning on using the original front mounting plates since I've read on this forum that the ones that come with the kit sometimes sit too low (about 1 inch)
anyways, I'm trying to take the four bolts off that hold the front mounting plate so that I can take the front leaf spring bushing out (see picture from the instruction manual) and one just snapped off.
The area seems to be coated in some undercoating and I think that might have stuck the bolt and surface area together. My question is, does the Hotchkis kit I ordered (HSS-24385) come with the mounting hardware (bolts, nuts and washers) or am I supposed to use the original ones?
Any suggestions on getting the rest of the bolts off without breaking them?
