I got mine from thesuspensionking.com. Square bend, 9/16" dia, 2 1/2" inside width, 7" long. You can reuse the stock bolts, but they'll hang down an extra 1 1/4" and be quite noticable. Most of the places that sell u bolts recommend that you don't reuse them, though, due to the rolled threads.

You can easily reuse them, if they hang low get out the grinder with cut off wheel.
