Default Help with U-Bolts!

So I picked up a pair of axels and a 3 inch lift from a guy. It comes with blocks for the rear and the Ubolts were not included. I have a guy here that will make some for me, but I need to figure out what the dimensions are.

Is there a Ubolt that is made for this application? Is it different per lift kit? What do I do?

Should be able to go to ANY auto parts store and tell them what your doing and they will sell U some that will work (U can also pick em up at farm/ranch supply stores for cheaper, if U live in a rural area).

If U absolutely want closest to correct size for cheapest and have no other way, pick some up at say Napa then go to ur local ranch store and match em up and take the Napa ones back.

Another cheap place may be a axle/repair shop or 4x4 shop, wouldn't know if they carry em since we have none out here in BFE! lol

If your blocks are 3in. I dont think the ones in the auto parts store will be long enough, you may have to special order.

U can also pick up really long ones in a ranch/farm supply store since some tractors take uber long ones.
