is it hard to replace the rear leaf spring monts and hangars on a 96 fullsive bronco? they are both rotted clean through and broke free. thanks

yea its a pain. the rubber gromits in the leaf springs tend to not let the bolts out without a fight lol. so you will need a impact gun and a torch. take the torch and heat up the spring where the bolt is and when its to the point where the rubber is ozzing out use the impact to back the bolt out. you better be fast too. that is about all the info ive got for ya without seeing it. ive done it the way ive stated on about a half a dozen trucks and jeeps.

i need to replace the whole bracket the spring bolts to. it seems to bolt to the frame and then the hangars bolt to that.
