I found this site today and wondered if anyone has used them: http://thesuspensionking.com/catalo...ucts_id=624&osCsid=brush3v3f8v5a6i12ekho5ckc3

I might need U-bolts for my truck when I try and remove the center leafs, and while I'd like to grab the U-bolts from someone on the board, these guys have 'em for $6 each. That's $24 + shipping... that's not bad, probably $30-35 total. I can deal with that.

Anyone on here have any experience with them? Bad / good? Opinions?

 

If you giev me measurments can make you U-Bolts for the same price is not cheaper. I work at a spring shop. I got connections! lol

 

Sound vision soul. Would you be able to fab me a kit that would allow me to flip the u bolts?

 

Flip the u bolts or flip the spring over the axle?

 

Im thinking flip u bolts so they dont drag. Is that even possible?

 

Should be able to....4wd guys do it all the time but might be a little tricky with the spring under the axle

 

what you need to do is build a top plate that hugs the axle, but gives a flat bolting surface.... something like off a ford.... or anything that the u bolts point up. Then the U part of the bolt will need to be a square end not round to hug the spring itself.... and maybe a bottom plate made up.

 

True. Ill try crawl under my truck tomorrow and take a closer look at it. Are all fords like that?

 

not all of them.... some rangers.... the f 150's are usually 4x4 so he leaf's are over the axles...... not under like our little yota's
