Re: Remove shocks and leaf springs
Don't forget to remove the ground cable, before lowering the rearend. You will most likely need to make a longer one when done. Also make sure your oil level is right on before you start removing parts. (sitting on all original 4 wheels on a level floor) After you lift it , remark the dipstick so you know where full is. It will change. I personally don't add oil, that's is the new full mark. Not a bad job. Good luck.

Re: Remove shocks and leaf springs
the easiest way to get the bolts out, as stated, is to cut them on each side of the leaf spring. this is done through the rubbers inside the spring hanger. when both sides are cut the leaf spring will simply be able to be pried down. yes there is roon to use a 4 inch grinder with a cut off wheel, or a 3 inch wheel in a muffler cutter type air tool. Both have worked for me. after this is done you will need new spring rubbers and sleeves. i usually replace all 8 of them when i am working on a cart anyway.
