i got a used skyjacker 3" leaf pack im gona put under my jeep. do i need new u bolts? and if i do what size do i need and where can i get them? is there anything else ill need to install the leaf packs besides the obvious? i allready got lift shocks and longer brake line.

 

You will need new u bolts. Get them online maybe. Search 3 inch lift Jeep Cherokee u bolts and whatever axle you have. Should find something

 

Size will be determined by axle size and most parts stores have them.

 

if the stores dont have them, call one of the lift companies and they will be able to hook you up

 

Need some lady luck on your side if this is your first lift

 

i have found that its cheaper to buy a block lift kit and use the u-bolts from it than buying u-bolts at the parts store, plus you can use the blocks as paperweights.

 

what he said, x2^

 

look up "spring shop" in your area. they will bend them for you right on site.

for instance, here we have Delta Spring and Suspension and Cambridge Spring.

 

Try the Vendor Forum here, ya might get lucky and find a screamin' deal or two.

 

allright ill check the parts store. thank everyone.

 

well i went to napa and they wanted 14 bucks for one that seemed way to expensive. is that what they go for?

 

For a full set of 4? That is dang good. I went to autozone and bought their cheapest lift block kit, think it was $19. Got me all 4 unbolts and nuts and washers. I tossed the blocks.

 

X2 measure the width of the axle tube. Should be like 3" and the length to the plate on top of the spring.

 

Autozone u-bolts are junk and typically grade 5, if that.

 

Yea it is crappy metal.

I don't trust anything "Made in China"
