"Exactly what I needed, was installing rear add a leafs on my 94 Chevy half ton and I discovered the factory u bolts were nearly worn throug."
"Good quality, only issue is mine were .5" to short from the 12.5" described making them to short for my application."
"I installed a seven-leaf spring set on my GMC Sierra p/u in place of the factory three-leaf springs to boost my trailering capacity."
"Purchased these extended U bolts for my 03 silverado when I added a leaf to the rear spring pack."
"Well they wont work on one inch blocks."
"They are actually thicker than oem and come with Grade 8 hardware."
"At first glance the blocks had a crappy powder coating and the u bolts and nuts had metal chips embedded in the threads that I couldn't even blow out with a compressor. Upon trying to install the blocks and reassemble, I noticed my u bolts were bending outward to the point of not being able to fit into the saddle."

"Great product shipped amazingly fast."
"The 4cyl version of this I use and works quite well in the front-end."
"Takes a few days to break in; as the first few days the locker would bind up the axle and make a loud pop, but that pretty much went away except for the occasional time I'm turning hard into a parking space or something similar."
"Great locker for the price and self install, you have to know a little what your doing though, I’d say took about 2 hours to install in my jeep TJ Dana 44."
"Increases traction wonderfully."
"Showed up ahead of the scheduled day."
"Clicks and pops louder than I expected."

Find Best Price at Amazon"-Good for doing small repairs/replacements on various cars. - price is decent for the quality:quantity raito. CONS. - not great for a bigger repair/replacement project due to limit of 20pc each. TL;DR. Great price, solid quality, decent count (20ea),has just about every type of retainer for the common use."
"It’s no longer nuts and bolts when it comes to cars."
"Looks good should have what looks like the most popular fasteners that are used."
"This kit is great to have on hand to replace the pins you lose or break."
"This assortment looks like it has a good selection of retainers, have not used any yet so it is hard to say how they will work but the quality looks very good."
"no fillers only useful parts."
"has every size I need, stay in place when installed."
"Not exactly the highest quality, however there are a lot of them in this kit, and are a fraction of the cost of the "help" area of the auto parts store."
