Getting the Wheeling Fever
Guys I need a pair of U Bolts for 5 inch lift springs on the rear of an 85 runner. All I can seem to find is the rounded ones and I need the squared off ones. Any ideas on where to find them? .....Thanks.....Brian

In the "help" section of the auto parts stores? They have some different u-bolts.

If all else fails, theres a place here that bends up custom ubolts. Maybe they will ship to you? Its called Brighton Spring.

Body Damage is Cool
Looks like there's two spring shops in your relative area. Either should be able to bend ubolts. Roanoke Auto Spring Works, Inc is right in Roanoke, and Salem Spring Works in (oddly enough) Salem. Trailer and heavy truck supply stores are another possible source. I see there's a Valley Heavy Duty Truck Alignment also in Roanoke that might be a place to try.
