    Used for maybe 5,000 miles before I added lift. Repackaged in original box so easy to ship, $100, buyer pays shipping. Would fit 2015-2019 according to Hellwig

    I received the more curved U-bolts for third gen, but did not use them.

    These were great, mild lift maybe 1", more controlled rear end, no issues, served purpose for lots of camping and biking gear

    Mike, I would take you up on your offer but I’m not close and I’ve already ordered a set of these.

    I was wondering if you had any issues with brake lines or gas tank clearance with the u-bolts? Did the package come with new axle u-bolts or did you re-use the originals?

    Tks, Jim

    I did not have any issues, you do have to line things up well when you install, the u-bolts help. I did not need to use the new u-bolts, without them it did not fit perfect but it was not an issue. They did not come them, but this was a while ago. Hope that helps! Mike

    edit: if I were you I would email them and ask for the more angled u-bolts...

    Thanks, Mike. It appears that the curved u-bolts are included in the kit. So we’ll see.

    GLWS, Jim
