The number of times I've had to remove wet bolts, either to replace a spring or the wet bolts, I've lifted the rig with the hydraulics and then used a small bottle jack under the spring at the axle. It is easier with the wheel removed. When I have removed/replaced a wet bolt, I normally remove one at a time and put it back in before going to another. Spring replacement is about the same except you are removing the spring pack from the axle, so the U-bolts must be removed also, and still using a bottle jack under the axle.
