go to autozone/ advanced auto/ oreillys and get a small block kit. Ditch the blocks, keep the u bolts.

It is recommended that U-bolts should not be re-used. Just pony up and buy some new ones.

they'd only be too long if the lift came with blocks.. otherwise they should be the same size. You can always take your old u bolts up to autozone and compare them..

Well i'd say the 1" block kit should work then. Just take in your stock u bolts and compare up to see if they can make up the difference.
