Rear U bolt size and vendor?

[59bisquik]

I am ready to put the rear axle back in, however I am in need of some square u bolts. I havent found a vendor that has them, but have found folks that will make them if I have the specs. I only have one good bolt for reference, but it is 8" long due to having overloads installed at one time. What size and grade of bolts do I need?

All good auto parts stores sell U-bolts. Carry your bolt in and match it up.

Have ya tried SD Spring?

I tried Napa and Vato Zone with no luck. I didnt see what i was looking for in the SD website.

 

Correct me if I am wrong, be the springs measure 1 3/4" wide and the u bolts are 1 13/16" on the inside. Does the 1 3/4 u bolt mean it fits a 1 3/4 spring or that is its inside measurement?

 

Second, the ones I have are 8" from the overload springs and spacer that was added. I am curious how long they are supposed to be for stock.

 

I did contact ATS spring to see what they have.
