U-bolts for 8.25 rear

[TylerW]

Hey guys:

The 8.25 out of the (now) parts car Duster is going to the Valiant and I'm going to need some new U-bolts.

Would anyone have a part# on hand that the local places( A-zone, advance, Oreilly etc) would be able to get? I did search PartsAmerica for them and they show about 5 different numbers.

I'm actually still fighting the old bolts off so if I can get the info I can call them ahead and have them here in the morning..whoops I guess Sunday morning. Thank you.

PS....to illustrate difference in the strength of the bolts, almost all the 7.25 bolts snapped, none of the 8.25's did.

As long as the U bolts fit 3 inch tubes and must be at least 7 inches long they will work.
I bought these.

Any decent spring shop will have them. Most places make them themselves.
