| No, the nut is not welded in place... like it should be. I had to get a crescent wrench above the cross member and hold it in place. It's a pain to get your hand up there and find the nut and hold it in place. The nut SHOULD be the same size as the bolt, but don't quote me on that. Hold it with the crescent wrench and then loosen the bolt. the bolt will come out and the nut will be loose above the cross member. Be careful getting the nut out of there. My differential drop came with a new bolt and nut but the instructions said to keep the old one to reuse. It was a pain to do on my truck. I think I got my hand stuck once and also cramped up trying to get my hand in place to hold the wrench. Also lost the nut for a good 10-15 minutes. That was not fun.
