Well to be honest it was a PAIN IN THE ***,because my bolts were froze to the bushing so when you went to turn the bolt the bushing turned with it. so it took a lot of hitting with a hammer and i even you a Air Hammer. And it was still a pain. but putting them in was a breeze.

or did you remove it to get a better swing (hammer swing)

How did you get the bolt past the gas tank? Last weekend, I had to loosen the straps to the gas tank just so the upper bolts would clear. Btw my buddy has the same exact Blazer as yours except we put 31" General Grabber AT2's. Oh yea, we also had to remove the charcoal canister because that was in the way as well.
