Default Rear blocks/ u-bolts

Ok before everyone yells at the search **** for not searching, the answer is I did. Also since I usually help people out rather than ask questions I should get a pass on this one lol.

I see that a lot of people used the 2" rear kit from Auto Zone. When I went to there the U-bolts are only 3-1/8" to 3-1/4" on the inside dimension. The 9-1/4" rear axle tube is about 9-1/2" so they wont fit.

So where did people find rear U-bolts and 2" block for the 9-1/4" axle?
