For those of you who don't already know, I just bought a bunch of them at Home Depot and Lowe's. USA made, much stronger that original, and they have the short and long versions, too.
Perhaps you can post a link, M&C: linkie no workie, because the only ones I could find are shear pins, not U-bolts; again, what I saw would be a total disaster, not a suitable fastener for an automotive rear end. Please show me which ones you bought because we may not be on the same page..

I saw them in AutoZone today. Very nice, strong and the correct color. Cool!
