There doesn't seem to be any easy access to the nuts on the inside of the frame. Is there any way to get at these without having to cut into the frame? I'll also need access for the new mounts.
Whenever you leave behind failure that means you're doing better if you think everything you've done has been great you're probably dumb -Louis CK- '53 GMC | | | | | Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2006 Posts: 2,544 | If you jack the truck up sometimes you can take a long extension with a swivel socket and go up through the opening in the crossmember where the lower a-frame connects. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 61 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Sep 2013 Posts: 61 | Yeah I actually got them out. I was taking out the whole wheel assemblies anyway and you can quite easily get at the nuts. Thanks for the suggestion.
