these autoparts stores piss me off

[funkingonutz]

can anyone give me the measurements/part number for the stock u-bolts for my '95 ranger 4x4, i need to replace my driverside u-bolts because they are REAl loose(like 1/4 in. gap between the bolts and the axle tube)
and i cant tighten them up because they are rusted tight.

And these stupid autoparts stores cant seem to find ANYTHING that fits

but NAPA might have them, ive replaced the passenger side awhile ago, but ive forgotten the part number....can anyone give it to me??

O yeah and FORD has them but they want 72.00

cant you just measure the passenger side?

 

[funkingonutz]

yeah i did that and i brought the measurments into NAPA and the guy said "we dont carry those sizes"

so can somebody give me the measurments PLEASE!!

i must of measured wrong or that guy is an idiot....

they go by the tube measurement they go onto, which would be inside eged of u bolt to inside edge

live any where near a spring shop? or big rig shop? they can usually make them for about 10-15 bucks. just bring whats left of the old one.
