Replacement U-Bolts

Ok so all parts are ordered to complete my Dakar lift on my 85. My u-bolts are factory Toyota I assume so not even going to try and reuse them. Just cut them off and put new ones on. I seem to remember being able to find u-bolt sets for around $20-25 an axle. Now most of what I am seeing is $35-50 and axle. I won't be high enough to use a flip kit, yet....

So has anyone found an affordable place that sells u-bolt kits for the front and rear. If it's 35-50 so be it. But I hate paying to much for anything. Especially when I still need to save up for gears and install kits.

Now my local spring shop is not bad

Then I also ordered them from General Spring

Every thing has new springs so I have not bought any for a while

I just ordered OME u bolts and torsion bars from rocky road outfitters. I think they were about $12 each? I bought all my OME from them. Easy to deal with.

12 a u-bolt. If I'm going to spend $100 on U-bolts it's going to be part of a flip kit.
