Would anyone be able to tell me the socket size required to remove them? Also what would be the best way to remove them bearing in mind the rear sub assembly (no idea if thats wat its actually called) has been removed from the donor.

What can i say, im new to this game and you have to start somewhere . So feel free to correct me on anything, any help will be much appreciated

An impact gun made short work of mine but if you dont have one a nice long bar on the end of you socket will be just as good

Some heat on the nut always helps too if you start to struggle.

Im sure you probably know this but just incase, dont forget the passenger side has a left handed thread! i say dont forget because i did! so spent 10mins scratching head thinking why wont it come off then i remembered.

I think i was just caught up the moment, i enjoyed taking my sierra to pieces a bit too much.
