    Hey guys and gals,

    I'm installing an AAL this week and can not find 2 1/2" U-bolts anywhere around me. All I can get is some 2 5/8" is that going to work or do I need to order some online? Thank you all in advance for the insight!

    2017 Tacoma OR 4x4 (formerly a 1998 SR5 PU, 2002 OR 4x4, 1995 4x4 4Runner, 1985 4x4 Toy PU) ... and RIP’s (rust in pieces) to a Bronco II 4x4 & S10 Blazer 4x4
    2-5/8” wide? If it calls for 2-1/2” wide I wouldnt do it.

    Note: my 2017 OR has a single Deaver AAL and the bolts are 2-3/8” wide in the space between them, and the stock leafs and overload are 2-3/8”. The bolts themselves are 3” center to center.

    Call @Headstrong for help.

    Ordered nice ones that fit... And they were cheaper. Just have to put off the lift for a few days, no big deal. Once again, thanks for the input!
