Default 3" blocks

Does any one know what size of U bolts I need in order to install 3" blocks? I got a front spacer kit and rear blocks but it didn't come with U bolts. I need to know what size to get in order to have them before I take the others off.

measure the height on the factory blocks to the height on the new ones add that to the length of the u bolts and you should be good. Get them made alittle longer and zip cut them off if you have too.
