Where to buy unusual size U-bolt?

[skipmarcy]

My 1999 F250 Super Duty 4x4 uses 3" wide leaf springs/ubolts - just got new ones for the rear springs a couple of months ago. The rear bolts have the rounded U and the front springs use the squared U - take your pick and order appropriately.

If you want it to look better get some rod and and thread the ends and bend or you could use bolts and a piece of flat steel say 1 1/2 in wide and put two holes in it.

Three inch is a common size and should be widely available. Try the already mentioned places or a spring shop will likely have them made and on hand. If you make it as far as a spring shop don't be concerned. Most any I have ever seen look like a throwback to the middle 1800's.

You could check an auto parts store. 3" is a common exhaust pipe size.

I've got them before for a pipe top trailer from a muffler shop.
