I've searched around and haven't found anything. I'm wondering what tools i'm going to need to pull off some 63" leaf springs at the junk yard.
I know a breaker bar, but what size sockets? Some other tools?

Any advice would be great. Just wanna go prepared!

A hacksaw/sawzall will go a long way on frozen bolts.

For sure, I'd have to get some blades.. I'm assuming that the bolts will be seized up with rust. But if i could the ubolts, and hangers/shackles off with just a breaker bar, that'd be sweet. Would you know what size sockets I'd need?

Good deal! I have all that so i should be set. Thanks.

I hope doing the 63" sway will be worth all the work. Ha
Still have to figure out what i need to do for a new bracket, for the break lines..
