Would it be easier& safer to just cut the bolt, & replace with a new one?

Probably, but it wouldn't be as much fun.

I have a 1974 also and don't have that same leaf spring. Mine is steel with 7 leafs yours was a composition. I was wondering how that worked in keeping the rear stable over bumps vs a steel leaf spring. I like having the steel for added weight in the rear which I need.

Sorry, but I can't compare the composite to the steel because both of my C3's already had the composite springs when I bought them. I can say that I don't really have any problems with stability.

The composite springs are far superior to the steel leaves. On top of being 30 some pounds lighter, it will not corrode, sag, deform over time, or ever need replacement and it definitely is more stable around corners. Not sure why anyone would ever need weight... the name of the game is to lose weight and gain more poneys. Also, the composite springs come in different spring rates. 315 lbs, 340 lbs, 355 lbs, and so on. You can select the spring based on what you are doing with your Vette (street only, street and track, aggressive racing, etc). Hope this helps.

No, but it hurts a lot less when I stand up when I'm still under the ramps of the lift.
