What size U-Bolts for a Dana 60?

[MxRacer855]

I'm trying to replace the stock ones I had on my 8-3/4" with new ones for the Dana 60 I ordered. Can anyone help with the sizes? Also, are they the same (even if they are, I don't know the stock size)? I hope they are so the plate on the bottom doesn't need to be replaced.

Jeff,
It is my understanding the U bolts and lower plates are the same for the Dana 60 and 8 ¾.

Yup. What he said. That is assuming you're talking about a car Dana 60.

Trucks used bigger tubes.

Definitely a car Dana. An S-60.

Do you guys know where I can get some chrome U bolts? Any stainless metal for that matter.
