Does anyone know where I can get new leaf spring bolts? I'm looking for the four bolts and two nuts. The two bolts for the front that go in the frame and the two in the back that go through the shackle and then attach with the nut. When I was doing my lift, I notice the bolts are in pretty bad shape and stripped and I would like to replace. Thanks for any info

Jeep dealer for OE replacements, or you can match one of yours up at a local hardware store or Napa autoparts. Make shure you go with equal or greater hardness grade on your bolts. That and make shure you get the right size and thread pitch.

Thanks for the info. I actually called a jeep dealer close to me today and they had them in stock, so I was able to replace them. They were expensive though!
