okay so i have the most rear part of my leaves off
but the front ones wont come out
the pin that bolts it all together is stuck in the bushings which are stuck in the springs

dont burn them out, should be able to spray some anti seize od similar in there and work them out. not a quick fix but a better one. i had similar and used a g clamp on the nut end and the other on the cars haner part, worked like press, and worked like a charm, no damge either.

i got it out with the g clamp on one side
the other side is slowly coming, dinners ready, so i left the clamp on with a heap of pressure and a heap of wd40 so it should be abit more loose by the time i can get back into it
