    Well, for the ones that don't know i bought the spindle lift off Jarrets truck and am planning on putting it on this week when it comes in, i also bought a set of 4" blocks for the rear. Well the set i bought off 4wheelparts i thought came with u bolts. In the picture it included them and nowhere did it say it didn't come with them. Anyway, as you can imagine when they came in today, no u bolts. So my question is where can i buy some thats not over the internet? Jarretts offered to send me his from his truck but if i can just buy some and have them in my hands i'd do it so i can go ahead and put all this on. Getting new shocks in the morning and the spindles are scheduled to be in tomorrow also. So...yall can sense why i'm wanting them already....anyway, if anyone knows where, thanks

    Places sell longer U Bolts. Just need to find em is all. There's probably somewhere local to you that sells em. They've sold them for years, older lowered trucks use to use them.

    I think we hav some lift U-bolts at the store, take one of your old ones and compare them (threads/diameter...obviously need to be longer) but otherwise a shop will have to make them

    my 4 wheel parts told my friend to go to a shop and they made the new U bolts right in front of him. just ask the people at your local 4 wheel parts and they should know a good place. it was about $60 for custom longer U bolts

    I re-read the OP, Advance or AutoZone may sell em. I know we use to buy them from Pep Boys, but that's been years ago.
