Need u bolts for the rear. 2 inch drop.
I'm dropping the rear 2 inches and have the bolcks but need to find the u bolts/ They have to be at least 2 inches longer than stock. Anyone know where I can get. I've seen the kits for like 75 bucks but don't need the spacers. What is the exact measurement of the stock u bolts. I measured center to center and cam up with 4 1/2 inches but they I have to have the measurement from inside to minside. They look to be 7 1/2 inches long as best I can tell.

Try a local spring shop... there are still shops that bend springs individually for heavy trucks and trailers, and they'll make u-bolts in any size and length you need.
