u bolt broke

I tried to take the u bolts off my front diff and one of them broke on my 05 exc. I just bought the truck and it has a lift on it so I don't know if the u bolt is the stock length or not ?. If any one can can tell me how thick the spring pack is stock then I'll know if mine is longer or the same length. then i can just order a stock one from ford or after market if needed.. thanks for any help

It broke when you removed it? They're not supposed to be re used anyway.

A local spring/suspension shop can make one for you.

Well, once again, they are not to be reused. It doesn't matter if the come off in one piece or not. New ones can be obtained locally.

Take Care
