Info

This is the driver side front leaf springhanger. You will need to loosen it inorder to get the rear on the subframeconnector under the inside two bolts.Unbolting the forward leaf spring hangershould never be done with an impactwrench. The nuts holding the bolts inplace are just spot welded to thesespring clips and they’re easy to break.Spray the nuts with a lubricant orpenetrating oil before you start to loosenthem.Carefully remove the three bolts thathold the spring hanger in place. If thespring clips do break, they are availablefrom both GM and the aftermarket.#917701 Page 97
Once you have all the bolts removed,use a small pry bar to separate thespring hanger from the unibody framerail and floor.Slide the driver side subframe connectorover the back of the bosses on the frontclipframe rail. Once you have it startedover the boss, slide it as far forward asyou can. The slotted holes allow for anyslight length difference from car to car.#917701 Page 98
