Lower Coil Spring mount?

Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows what size socket / wrench I need to take the lower nut off in order to get the springs off? Axle is out of a '95 F-150, Thanks

Yup. But don't try loosening the nut by turning the bolt from the bottom. There is another nut under the spring perch. You have to loosen the nut, working through the spring.
