2nd Gen U-Bolt Flip Kits, what's the difference?

I've seen a couple of U Bolt Flip kits out there. I know that All Pro makes one and that Timbren makes one, Relentless too, which is super cheap $29

I've just ordered a set of the All-Pro Expo packs on the MDW Discount, but I'll also want to upgrade my bump stops and flip my U-Bolts.

I see two kits available as an option: Timbren $168

I'm inclined to order the All-Pro ones, but if the Timbrens work fine sounds like the best deal since it's literally $214 for the bump stops and $29 for the ubolt flip kit. $168 is a steal!

 

I have the All pro $79 kit and picked up www.wheelers.com bump stops.

 

Go with allpro .. their u-bolts and plates are pretty damn rigid

 

The Timbren kit isn't a cheap kit either, they usually go for ~240 and they also have a lifetime warranty. Don't think All-Pro does though.

I'm heavily leaning on the timbren kit, don't get me wrong, I just want to know what the difference is if it's that much of a difference.

 

I can't tell you, I can only tell you what I've owned and currently run. I do know if you break an allpro u-bolt you got bigger probs lol. Their customer service is top notch as well.

 

Nice. A vendor got back to me and told me the difference.

The Timbren Kit comes with 7-3/4" u-bolts.
The All Pro Kit comes with 8-1/2" u-bolts.

Anyone know where I can buy some quality 8-1/2" U-bolts?

 

Sounds like from All-Pro....

 

U-Bolts are a generic part, they should be found easily from parts stores. But the problem is a lot of places want wholesale and in small quantities they charge more than double or triple the price. All-Pro also charges shipping so they may not be the best place to buy U-Bolts.

The preference would be to buy the u-bolts at the best price available including other misc charges like shipping and handling to leave money available for additional mods.
