Bob, What Joe said....new ubolts are a must. They are cheap to buy at any spring shop.

To pull the plate off, you have to follow Bruce's advise on jacking. Unless you have the Level up...then just need a small bottle jack on the spring pack when you pull the plate.

When I changed a broken leaf, I used some timbers and two 20ton bottle jacks to lift at the frame for and aft of the wheels. To un-weight the springs.
