X20..........I just parted out and 85 and had no issues with any bolt on the rig...hell didnt even have to use a breaker bar......Id suggest moving out of the rust belt
 
Shock bolts suck, but it could have been worse, at least your leaf mounting bolts didnt rip the nut out of the frame, gas tank catch on fire and truck fall off the jack and one of the drums land on your crotch. See, now dont ya feel better?
