Ok I found out what the groan is in the rear side of the Jeep. I have sheared an eye bolt on the front left leaf spring. Now I am trying to get another bolt but I don't know the size. Hoping someone does?
Regards A

M14x2.0 120mm long but the first 10m has no thread....
Thanks JJ I got an m12 mild steel and thought I might have been a 14. Have to get to West Launi Wreckers on Monday and get one. 230km to buy a $5 bolt. Oh well hopefully there is someone who can help me fix it on Monday.

If it hadn't been a rush I coulda sent some with the IPF's...
Yerr would have been good. But I need to sort it Monday. As it is I reckon the bush might get damaged. The spring is wearing hole in the floor and I reckon where the bolt goes through on the outside of the hanger the hole is starting to elongate. FIIK how I am going to extract the rest of the bolt as screw extractors are going to be hard as I assume the bolt is hitensile. Gonna try and get a small weld on it with a long bolt welded on and unscrew it. But am concerned about welding the remaining bolt to the chassis.
Regards A
