Leaf Spring Removal

Posted by 53 Cavalier On 2024/6/23 13:43:01
My 53 Cavalier sits a bit low on the rear driver's corner, which I'm pretty sure is caused by that deck of springs. Maybe just a bit soft, maybe a broken leaf, not sure, but time to pull them and see what's going on and get the care nice and level before any body work and a front end alignment happen.

The service manual does not mention the need for removing the fuel tank, but the driver's side shackle seems like it won't come out with the fuel tank in the way, like the shackle should be installed the opposite direction with the nuts to the inside like the passenger's side.

Thoughts? Should I be prepared to drop the fuel tank as well?
