How to service and repair the Leaf Spring Shackle on GMC C3500?

The service and repair process starts by positioning suitable safety stands underneath the vehicle to support it during the operation. Additionally, the vehicle needs to be elevated with adequate tools to free up the tension from leaf springs on the rear axle. The service requires the spring nut removal while a user loosens it and proceeds to take off the shackle from the rear bracket bolt, nut, washers before cleaning out the spring nut and washers with bolt and shackle from the vehicle. The installation sequence begins with putting the shackle on the vehicle but avoiding fastener tightening until all parts have been properly positioned. Tighten the spring shackle by first following the advice from the fastener notice in service precautions before focusing on attaching it to the spring bolt assembly. Proceed by connecting the shackle to the rear bracket bolt along with washers and nut then tighten the Leaf Spring to bracket nuts to 415 nm (306 ft. Lbs.) and Leaf Spring to shackle nut to 213 nm (157 ft. Lbs.) and shackle to bracket nuts to 213 nm (157 ft. Lbs.). The spring height needs adjustment until the top part of the axle jounce pad matches the bottom section of the frame jounce bracket.
