Simple Q: leaf spring bolt size

[sirhrudy]

Hi all, just a quick question. I'm trying to remove/replace my leaf springs ('95 X) and wondered if anyone knew off-hand the size of socket needed to remove the bolts off the shackle. Sorry for the amateur question, but I wanted to make sure before running around trying to find the right size.

Thanks all...

I checked an extra rear leaf spring bolt that I got when I bought used four door leaf springs for my sport. The nut is definately a 21mm. A 3/4" is too small and a 7/8" is too big.
