I'm getting ready to change out the rear leafs on my 95 xj. I hear that the front bolts are welded to the frame. Can anyone shed some light or do I spend a weekend cursing and taking a taxi to work the next week to work?

The front bolts are not welded to the frame. Start spraying with pb blast a week ago.

The bolts go into a welded nut. Spray lots of parts blaster into the frame hole at the weld nut inside. I cracked a 21mm impact socket taking the left side out. Right side came out easy. Check out bleepinjeep's bastard pack install on YouTube.
