Are the u-bolts bigger in the bend? It needs to hold the axle tube tight... I've had some that were almost like the bend didn't make them parallel, but it held the axle tube right! As long as you can get them threw the plate that sits on top of the leaf, you should be good!

Fun, very fun, Old Ward trails not really difficult but mother nature made a couple of the washouts a little more interesting. Kind of a nice liesurely stroll kinda run. Plus it was cooler in temp towards the top, good day!
