Re: Axle Shim Help

Thanks kwmech. I always have used new u-bolts anytime I've done this truck suspension, and will continue to do so. I won't buy ones online or at conventional parts stores because they will bend even before the factory torque spec (which is 110 or 140 lbs, cannot remember offhand). I got it together using no washers and went smoothly after I got steel shims sent in from superlift. Planned on 5/8 as well. I have mine made down at Evansville truck and spring. They're pretty much 10 bucks a ubolt with hardware so I never complained. Much better quality than anywhere else I've found locally
