I have read a few posts on lifting the back up and came across a few saying the top shock mount can sheer of when trying to undo the nut.
Is this a one off or common, I have a nut splitter and can just replace the nut,also can the old pin be taken out and replaced or does a new mount and pin need welding in.
Thanks guys.

Can you drill it out and replace it with a bolt?

I haven't started yet just advice on best action

split the nut if ya can mate if the thread is all good a new nut will go on simples

u could try it first with some wd and heat just dont give it too much and brake it

That's confirmed what I thought.
Also slightly off top,are KS springs ok or does anyone know of better for similar money.

have not heard of any one having a problem with KS leaf springs mate,
for the money thats what i would get

When I done my leafs LezT advised me to leave the shock attached to the bottom plate. Once the U bolts are off the bottom plate will swing out the way allowing for the leafs to be replaced.

Thanks guys but I am fitting lift shackles from Alex200 and have a set of pro shocks to fit as well as a complete overhaul of the rear suspension, new bushes spring hangers bottom shock plate rear brake hose to braided and KS springs.
