Hi, I started installing my lift kit on my cherokee today. I decided to start with the rear. I sucessfully got the shocks and u-bolts off, but the two end bolts on each leaf spring are stuck tight :-x! I can get my an impact wrench on the front bolts, and they wouldn't budge. In fact, on the third try, my socket extension piece ripped in half :-O, the bolt hasn't budged. I've used WD40 and PB Blaster all day on them, hasn't helped.
To make it worse, my impact wrench won't fit into the tight area between the fender and frame rail to get to the back two bolts, so I haven't figured out how I'm going to get those out??
Any ideas for getting these bolts out would be apreciated
