Best source for u-bolts?

[big pappa b]

Looking for front and rear u-bolts for my upcoming axle swap. Haven't decided if I want to upgrade the spring plates as well. Anyone see a need to get anything besides just using the stock ones?

Who's ot the best deals?

I use Rocky Mountain Spring and will use them very soon with my work load coming up

they make them to your Specifications and have the HD washers and HD nuts, unlike some of the Auto Parts Stores U bolts

usualy takes them 10-15 min to make while you wait

I use a local shop. There has to a local place that makes them in your area. The price was cheaper than buying online and shipping. I would start there.

I'm going there tomorrow if you need me to pick anything up, I know how busy you are at work all the time..

I need the 3 u-bolts nuts and washers for the front D60 and the 4 u-bolts, nuts and washers for the rear 14 bolt. I don't need them right away but if you can pick them up I get with you this weekend at the shop to get them

And I'm not busy at work, just always there.

You keeping same front springs right?.
I'm picking up the 3 front D60 u bolts. And gettin them 2 inch longer than stock to accommodate the 52in pack I'm using.

As far as rear I'm not sure how long you need. I think 3.5 tube, 9/16 bolt, but length need to measure

 

[big pappa b]

I'll get that info in the morning. What time you headed over there?

 

[63chevyll]

Sometime 10-12.

You can call or tx me if you need.

I'm sure the D60 stuff will be the same

2 inch is a little longer than I need, but leaving room for future leaf rebuilding or zero rate if I go that route.
