Try some of the vendors on here. Any vendor that sells lifts with rear blocks should carry them. Double check you axle diameter first.. Last resort would be epay.

That thread title and its relation to the post is going to haunt me all weekend.

Where you live do you have a spring service. Here in Phoenix we have several and I found they had several u-bolts in various length and sizes, sometimes they were less expensive than a vedor.

Re: listed dually guys step inside

Got a local truck spring shop?
One I shopped at made the u-bolts for me. They had the blanks and bent them on the spot. Older gentleman even remembered that the Dana 44 had one oddball, said he hadn't done a set in years. Said it was a good teaching experience for the "kids".

I'm kinda like duct tape- no real purpose, but handy to have around.

Here in Lafayette, IN I go to Rowe Truck. They specialize in heavy duty trucks, and semis. They also make their own u-bolts on site. Usually better made and cost less than trying to find them somewhere else. Might be worth checking something like that out.

Do you need the flat u bolts or the round ones? I may have some flat ones laying around pulled from 1 tons.
