Who was asking about U bolts and such. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

After I dropped my kids off at the airport today I swung by Ranch and Home in Kennewick WA.

Here were some of the pieces they had in their trailer parts section

A selection of dust caps that were very inexpensive

They had some steel fenders for single wheels that would be perfect for making mini tubs for 29 $ each and one would make two tubs in most cases. The photo didn't come out on that though.

mr48 makes a good point. i flipped a 86 trans am rearend on top of my stock springs using u-bolts, spring pads and a spring plate from a local trailer supply store for 1/3 the cost of the flip kits

Several I looked at were about 7.00 a package I just walked around the corner and there they were. The store is huge as it is the old Costco building and they have almost anything and everything from safes, barbecue equipment, cast iron cookware, western everything, car trailers outside, welding equipment and a complete and extensive hardware section along with a big sports section. I picked up two 100 rd boxes of 22 shells and 2 boxes of 12 gauge blanks to use with my cannons.

I picked up all my hardware at Southwest trailer and wheel here local in dallas, for $20-$25

That was picked up delivery would be expensive (Heavy) but many trailer stores are comparably priced.

Wish we had one here, just got the big box specialty stores .
Consider yourself lucky, .22 shells are rare here and expensive if you do find them..
I've got my stockpile (cheap) long before all the hording started
