Thread: Where to get u-bolts

Tweet

I guess flip is not the right term. I am putting the axle on top of the springs instead of under it. I am going to weld a plate on the bottom of the axle which will now sit on top of the springs. Then I will use a ubolt long enough to go from the bottom of the springs, through the plate I have just installed, and then through the original spring mounting pad on the axle and bolt it there. I thought I would put a set of bolts between the two pads also to secure the bottom pad first before tightening the top ones. I will end up needing about an 8" u bolt to tie it all together.
Thanks,

Ok, that's better. Any truck spring shop in your area can usually fix you up. They also modify springs pretty inexpensively, too.

I agree - I just had a 1/2dia x 9"Leg with a 4 1/4 opening made up locally in Albany, NY for a driveshaft loop for less than $7.00 including HD nuts and washers.

ECS stores carry lots of truck modification parts.
