    I have a set of 2.5 inch Dakar leaf springs packs and don’t know what size extended U bolts to order. Help?

    Am I missing something? Could you measure the height of your assembly and add 1/2" or so for nuts? Then compare to options like these: If you just ordered them and don't have leaves to measure yet, ask the manufacturer about the thickness of their leaf pack

    The thickness of the leaf pack is almost 3 inches. I’d say around 2.75 inches thick
