RC 4.5" Install...Missing Hardware?
Ok, so I set aside today and tomorrow to install my lift. I think I have already found a snag though before I even began. It looks like it did not come with replacement hardware for the leaf springs. I got the full leaf pack and from what I hear there is no saving the oe bolts. I planned on just cutting them out, but now it looks like I don't have any to replace them with. And of course it is Sunday so they are closed. Anyone know if these are supposed to come with the lift and also any suggestions where I can find some last minute locally?
It looks like there is hardware for everything else but this???

Well it looks like I am going to be ok. I tried to break them loose last night and all 4 of them came loose!!! I haven't tried to get them all the way out, but it is looking good.
Thanks for the help guys! I plan to finish up today.

I was able to use the original bolts. I guess I got super lucky. I got it all together, but it is scary to drive right now. It is vibrating all over the place. I am getting an alignment this afternoon so hopefully this will take care of it. I think I do have some drive line vibes too, but not all the time, just on and off.

you could have also used to LCA bolts if they gave you new ones, they're pretty close to the same as the leaf frame bolts.
did they give you new ubolts or did you reuse your stock ones?
