Default u bolts? where to get them and size?

Ok, i built my bastard pack today (it was a bastard to do btw)

Anyways after realizing i had a broke leaf that i have been riding on (had to buy a junk yard one)
I then seen that i wouldnt be able to re-use my old u bolts because they wouldnt even go half way into the nut.

So i looked ALL over town (trick truck, advance auto, auto zone, napa, and car quest)
I looked for 2 5/8 size u-bolts (that is correct right?) i have a 1989 cherokee.

I looked at 2 and 13/16 and it was to big.

Can anybody post a link or something for some lift u-bolts? I need to order them tonight, everything is back together except my u bolts so i need them asap.

Thanks ahead of time, and i did google them and didnt get much info.
