So like the title says i need measurements for the u bolts with a 4 inch super lift. I have a guy who can get me some by Monday but i need the measurements can some one please tell me. My truck and lift kit are at a friends and do not have them in front of me.

 

Can anyone please help.

 

do you havea 28 spline or a 31 spline? that makes a difference

 

dont you have an auto parts store or something by you?? i know advanced and autozone carry u-bolts that are pretty freakin long, just throwing out ideas

 

Did it not come with Ubolts? 31spline or 28spline axle? Makes a difference...

 

It came with u bolts but they are to short. They are maybe 1/8 of a inch over the plate. And i checked th auto parts places yesterday the biggest ones they carried is for exhaust. I have the 31 spline.

 

Exhaust u-bolts that are like 15" long????????? That's completely unheard of.



Those ones in the kit will not work for your 31spline. They are for an axle 1/4" smaller in tube diameter than your axle.

 

They ublots that they had FOR the exhaust were the biggest they had. How long do i need the new u-bolts to be.

 

well..how long are the ones in your kit? add 1" or 1.5".

*i understood biggest to the big the other way my bad...exhaust clamps are WAYYYY to thin of a rod anyhow. you'll want at least 7/16 rod.



Havn't heard of these issues with the superlift as far as ubolt lengths being wrong....It's all about that 3.25" axle tube and trying to make 3" bolts fit it.

 

Ya i found out after i tried to install it that the FX4s had bigger axles tubes then the normal rangers

 

yep...research helps before being screwed when you need something right now.


idk the proper measurements of the bolts you want, just I know the ubolts need to be make for a 3.25" axle tube.

and...i didn't wanna deal with the sketchyness of double stacked blocks...i went AAL and shackle route...made the truck very level.

 

Ya i plan on doing the aasl next month. Hopefully.
