Dude, I cant tell by a picture. Measure the tube diameter. Then measure the spring thickness. :confused:

There is a place on Baseline and Mesa Drive (South East Corner) called Spectra-Trac (sp?) that will custom make any U-bolts in about 10 minutes. Not the cheapest option however.

He would still need to know the size though, a picture isn't going to do them much good. ;) :p :D :D

PTO Sales, University and 16th st made mine in 10 minutes. Don't remember the cost, but I remember thinking they were realy cheap. Great bolts too. They have a new shop in gilbert now too. Huston west of Stapley.

Your tellin' me, that place is a rip off. I have been there twice...leaf pack cost and u-bolts, and their prices are ridiculous.

I finally got off my rear and measured the axle tube on the D60 ....
measures at 10 1/8 inches around .....
Does that help ???

Diameter not circumference:confused:

Circ = Pi * Diameter.
10.0125 inchs = 3.14 * Dia
10.0125/3.14=Dia
And you get
D= 3.18 inches (approx)
However, please check my math as I was constantly absent during Ms. Rutgens 9th grade math class. :D

I come up with like 3.2" so the 3.18 has gotta be right there... How many different axle tube diameters could a D60 possibly have anyhow ??????
