I have these. they are replated originals from a 1967 gmc. these are 3/8" thick. I believe some years had thicker bolts than other years. These would be the thin ones. What year is your truck?

my truck is a 1970-- aren't all 67-70's the same? By chance do you also have the brackets that go with them--

I have never had one break but it might not be a bad idea. probably depending how rough you are on your front suspension. Your call really.
