Here is a link http://www.generalspringkc.com/U_Bolts_s/1964.htm
Notice what they call a semi-round spring.
I ordered a set that I think will work with the 8.8 rear I have.
Here is a picture of the actual semi-round u-bolt


Sure looks like the same one in question that the OP posted.

Now, to get to the heart of why I am posting this,

In the past, I have looked at Toby and figured that he just didnt have "good manners"
That he was trying to express his likes and dislikes or opinions on vehicles. Figured he was young and was trying to show his knowledge.
But I have changed my opinion, and I believe you are a Troll and most every post you make is aimed at ticking someone off.
Your profile shows nothing, other then you are a male in the USA. Again, a sign of a TROLL.
The internet is a great way to hide and then try to bully people that you wouldnt dare do to their face.
If your intentions are to just "stir the bucket" why dont you find a different forum that appreciates that behavior. They are out there.
I figure you are going to say that I am not a moderator, and that is correct, but hopefully a moderator will look at this post and previous post of yours and take action, especially if you dont change your attitude.

Respect from strangers? Why would I give two ****s about that? Idc if people choose to use the information I give. If they do, ok if not ok. Doesn't bother me.

I KNOW I know what I know, it's not what I think I know.
Good day sir. Sorry you're all butthurt about a stranger on the internet.

But hey, you're a big boy right, don't care what anybody thinks, don't mean nothin' to you. Good, then you won't "choose" to be hurt when I tell you that your insecurity is painfully obvious to everyone here. You embarass most of the regulars just by posting your smug opinions couched in your petty, brat-ish, attitude. Its not useful, its not needed, and its immature. So do what you like, I won't waste time with you from here on out.

I'll stick by my belief that you are a Troll probably operating out of your parents basement.
In the real world, "not the internet" no one would put up with your crap, other then possibly your mommy and daddy.

He does troll, but then he's the one who ends up getting hurt, ranting, and calling people names.

Robertmee, I guess the Dunning-Kruger effect is another real possibility here, sure sounds familiar.
