Ive been waiting for everything to come im for quite some time now but im finally starting either tn or tm but my question is should all the bolts come off easy if ive sprayed it 3 times with pb blaster once a day, not sure if thats enough? Is this the best way to go about this? Also the jeep is rist free with 58k miles and if pb blaster is the best way is 3 times enough or should i spray the bolts a few more times

 

I wold do it as much as possible once in the morning once at night till You do it

 

Use air tools and make sure the sockets fit nicely. Take your time and give yourself an entire day.

 

Unfortunatly i currently dont have access to air tools simce my stepdad and i are not talking and he has the air compessor and refuses to let me use his tools so i have to use my own plain hand tools

 

2x a day for a week...

 

and i find it hard to believe rust free in NH, rust free or die...

 

Ud be right haha but, its from texas and has only been up here for the last 4000 miles

 

First off....
Thanks again for your order!

Now,
Beg, Borrow, or steal an impact gun. Go to Harbor freight and buy a P.O.S. Chinese one if you have to.
Use it to TIGHTEN the bolts just a bit before trying to loosen them. It makes all the difference in the world.

 

The only bolt troubles I had were a rear lower shock mount twisting off, and a couple bolts getting seized in the rear leaf bushings. I ended up drilling out the lower shock mount and replacing it with a 5/8" grade 8 bolt. The rear leaf bushing wasn't bad because I was able to remove the shackle then pound the bolt back and forth with a hammer until it was free of the bushing. The front bushing bolt that was rusted in the bushing sleeve was more difficult, I worked at it with a sawzall and a hacksaw for a good hour or two before I said screw it, went and bought a angle grinder and cut the leaf spring off and cut the bushing out.

This was on a 99 with 130k miles and no visible rust, and I had only sprayed with liquid wrench once 3 days before starting and again just before starting. I think you'll be fine.

Edit: Oh yeah I used hand tools, no air available. Just make sure you have a good breaker bar and cheater pipe for the stubborn ones.

 

No problem thanks for workin with me and so far im at step 7 or 8 took off wheels and both shocks so far as well as track bar and my difficulties so far is just getting to the bolts but si far so good

 

Yeah imsure air tools would be much better but everything has been easy so far *crosses fingers*

 

I only had to use air tools for my shackle bolts. Other than that I used hand tools

 

Done every lift in my life with hand tools, air tools aren't necessary

 

Erkmed--seein as how you didnt accept the Maryland Jeepers offer- take your time,double check what you have done, ask ??'s you should be fine, you aint no dummie!!

 

Thanks Gone, ill be honest with you i was thinking about making the trip. The only thing that stopped me was the ~ 300 in gas i would have used
