U bolt question ( lowered )

[ChaStur]

I'm in the process of leveling my truck off and have only one place to get custom u bolts made up. I want to run a 2" lowering block but they cannot give me one in the length suggested. Only shorter. With that said what's the minimum length I can get away with? Their over $20 each btw

And if that's not possible I can get 3/4" thread in the correct length.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

im just goin by what info is in your post, might help if you gave us more info on the truck and current suspension.


so i guess you already have a flip kit and your wanting to drop it another 2in in the rear? instead goin through all the trouble of new u bolts why not run 2in drop shackles?

I beleve there are places online to order u-bolts.

Don't settle for something less than a "full nut" of thread engagement.

Oops. It's a 70 with rear coils. I'm just trying to get a mild drop for winter and bags are getting put in this spring. Just hoping for a cost effective way to get 2" out of the rear.

I'll check online. Thanks!

Jeep Tj (96-02) coils in the rear will lower it 3-4inches and its a simple coil swap.
