As is evident, from my recent posts. I've never done a "virgin" rearend/spring/shock install before. The rearend, springs and shocks, are ready to install. The springs came with installed bushings on one end.
If possible, could some one list what hardware I will need?  As I said, all I have are the rearend, springs and shocks.
Thanks

Get a new set of U-bolts.  Don't try to use the old ones.

What size and length?  I noticed Mancini has a few lengths.

1/2" x 7"(length) x 3(round)".  Can be a little longer if that's all you can find.

2 front hangers
2 rear hangers
4 u-bolts
2 spring plates
2 shock plates
2 horse shoe clips
2 brake lines
