Has anyone upgraded to 3/4 u bolts on the rear of their truck? Is it necessary? And if so do i need a new top plate or can i drill out my current one?

truck is a 99superduty. Thanks

 

Look at precision metal fabrication, they offer exactly what you need. When i do the block kit from them I'm going to upgrade to 3/4

 

Welcome to Precision Metal Fabrication - USA Built suspension systems

 

I will say I was the passenger in a 2004 f350 crew cab and we slid off the road on a bad bend. When we went off the road we took out 8 to 12 small trees maybe 2" in diameter, and went down the bank about two truck lengths where a large pine tree stopped us. I don't know why it happened but the drivers side rear axle ubolts pulled through the top plate and when it rolled out the passenger ubolts snapped clear in half. We were going 45mph I believe at the time

 

i ordered their traction block and top plate today. I can get grade 8 3/4 u bolts local for $80 so I'm gonna go with those. Thanks for the link!
