Hey guys,
So I'm looking for u-bolts to finish up my lift. One issue. Autozone doesn't carry them. Murrys doesn't carry them. Advanced doesn't carry them and Carquest needs the EXACT size as in length, width, thread size, everything. I've searched all the forums but I can't find the correct size.
I have the Chrysler 8.25 rear end so I know that they're 3in bolts but what about the rest of the measurements. I'm lost when it comes to classifying hardware.

I don't have a spring shop in my area so that's outta the question. I thought about just going to home depot or lowes but I was told not to trust their quality? I will see if they have the lift blocks tomorrow. Any more suggestions?

You can also get them from napa. The 3" dia. and 1/2-20 threads (stockers are 3/8" I believe) are the big concerns. You can get longer than needed and just cut them down. I got my last set from Ironrock off road. If you can wait on shipping, they have an excellent price.
