Not sure why you had to quote me, as if I were directing my post to you (which obviously I wasn't), but I will return the favor and quote you and try to understand your logic as you were trying to understand mine.
Your advice was to always replace the u bolts earlier in the thread. My advise was to re use parts if you can, why burn $20 on u bolts if the originals are servicable. No none of the stuff you mentioned were needed, they were wanted additions. But since I was able to re use good original parts, I had more jack to toss at the wanted items. I have yet to learn the art of crapping out saw bucks yet, so I try to make my money go as far as possible.

Back to the original post, since your kit came with u bolts, use them, does it really matter if they are a little lose on the axle tube? I am sure WC doesn't want to wind up in court because they sold you something dangerous.
