65 rear axle U bolts
Is there a company that makes longer rear axle U bolts? I am getting ready to do my rear notch and want to install a 3" block under the axle. Thanks.....

Re: 65 rear axle U bolts
Look for a local spring shop, They can make you whatever you need on the spot. I just had a set made for my 72. I took a stock u-bolt with me and told them the length I wanted and they made them in like 3 mins. Cost me $24.00 with hardware. Hope it helps.

Re: 65 rear axle U bolts
DZL1 has the best solution for the u-bolts. Please reconsider going with 3" blocks though.
Anything more than 2" will put your U-bolts to close to the ground creating a dangerous element with your suspension.

Re: 65 rear axle U bolts
Thanks for the post guys. I am in the process of building my rear setup as we speak. Tonight I actually cut the stock suspension completely out. I guess I jumped the gun a little on this post....
