What size U-bolts
Hey All,
I am going to be putting in some add a leafs this week and am thinking I should replace the u-bolts. I have a 2015 4x4 and the leaf will be adding about 1.5-2 inches. My question is; can I pick up u-bolts from anywhere? Should my dealer have some? Any help is appreciated.

most heavy truck shops have u-bolt bending equipment...1 tons up to hwy trucks...
dealer may have to cross/lookup longer u-bolts....
stock you don't have enough for an add a leaf---1/2 inch thick---1.5-2inch lift...

Thanks that picture makes me think you are right and they won't be long enough, auto spring sells the add a leaf and says you can use the stock ones, but it looks like that's not true
My dealer has a commercial section, maybe some from the heavy duty trucks will work.
