Anyone know a good source for u-bolts? I'm in need longer ones. Got a decent price from ATS at 63.00 for front and rear, then they tried to put it on me with $40.00 s&h.

Re: U-bolts
Spring shops on bigger cities will be able to make them right on the spot, usually with good hardened nuts and washers.

Re: U-bolts
They do have U bolts in their catalog that are 1/2" at a great price. I'm not sure, but it seems that application is for setups with leafs were you have 2 U-bolts on each side and trailing arm trucks only use one U-bolt on each side......so is the truck U-bolts a little bigger in diameter than 1/2"?
Anybody got a loose one the could measure?
