Longer U-Bolts?

Im planning on adding 2" drop blocks in the rear of my truck to lower it a little more but only have the blocks, what exactly do I need to know before buying a set of longer u bolts? Also where could I get them at?

If you have a local spring shop, they can make a set for you, to your measurements. You just need to know the length that is on there now and add enough to fit your new blocks.....also measure the width of the U and the diameter of the bolt itself.
