Is there a cheaper way to get all new ubolts than $15 a piece for $120 from LMC?

Re: 67 4x4 u bolts

Do you by chance have a local axle and spring shop? The will build to your exact needs. We have a number of those type shops here and I think the last set I got for the rear axle of my K20 was about $45.

Re: 67 4x4 u bolts

not sure on a shop liek that, but for $60 I'd eb getting nuts and washers also, so I suppose it's just what it costs.

Re: 67 4x4 u bolts

I just brought in an old rusty one and walked out with 4 shiny new ones from the spring shop near me, 37 bucks is all I spent on the rear with bolts and washers.
