Front Hangar Bolts
« on: Jun 12, 2004, 01:32:16 PM »
I have a question regarding the front hangar bolts.  I know the shackle bolts are press fit like wheel studs are the spring hangar bolts the same way.  Thanks for your help.

Nope they are a flanged and bolted bolt.  You just pull the 2 12mm bolts that hold the flange on then pull the 18mm nut and pull them right out.  Sometimes they can be a pain to pull, so its easier to twist the bolt by useing a pipe wrench on the flange as you try and pull it out.  Ive had to put the nut back on the bolt and beat it a little bit to get it to start to break free while I twist at the same time.  Good luck you just might need it.

Considering that I torched the hangars off in the rear, and that I don't think anything in the suspension has been broken loose in 22 years, it might be quite a task.  Oh well, just need to  :_order: and  :flamer: all day long.
