5 pages for stock leaf replacement? Are you done yet?
I'm just so VERY proud, like a new papa....:yap::sunshine::laugh:

Who the sam-hell has the real part number and online part number and inventory for the XJ rear leaf spring flange nuts???
I thought it was 14MMx2.0 bolt but I'll be damned if can find the nuts for the Mopar bolts I already bought. The part number I had way back when was the nut for u-bolts, 12mm, not for the 14MM leaf spring bolt. I have new bolts, but no one lists the nuts anywhere.
I must be doing something wrong. It is 14mmx2.0 right?
An FYI what you call it? the crimp to make it a lock nut on the other end.
HEY! What about the annoying POPpING noise?

Now the axle does not want to line up with the spring bolt-pin/hole...., LOL.
Plan to take the drivers side tire off tomorrow, and float the entire axle, may need to loosen the u-bolts as well to get it to line up.

You should not have to take anything loose. It does take some force to align the components.
OEM requires 52 ft. lbs.
I tighten those on my XJ to 65 but the bolts are 1/2" fine thread with deep nuts.
