Has anyone found a source like a tractor supply for longer ubolts on a trailing arm setup?

Most 4x4 shops have a selection.

jkade,... I use a local Semi tractor and trailer supplier. They have all lengths of "straight" u-bolt material on hand. They just take your dimensions and bend them while you wait. 67-72 rear u-bolts are normally around $30. Here's a link. They are in Jefferson City, MO. http://www.alscheppers.com/
