Rear Shock Mounts

[Jake978]

Changing out my rear shock mounts old one are almost disintegrated:

1. What is the torque requirement for the U Bolt bolts?
2. Online The U Bolts with nuts each cost ~ $25 any cheaper sources. I'll need four.
3. Or maybe just use the existing u_Bolts buy new Nuts? Any special type hardness required? Best place to purchase?

You might check places that sell trailer parts. I don't know your area, but we have businesses that just sell trailer parts. Some farm stores do too. You might be surprised at a local axle/spring shop too if there's one nearby. They might be reasonable, especially if you have to add shipping to the on-line parts.

I used this kit when I swapped leaf springs on my old Ranger. Galvanized, and comes with new washers and nuts. I was very happy with them, and only $36.
