Ruffstuff Axle Simple Swap Kit!
This is the basic kit essential for an Axle swap, more items could be added but this is the bare minimum, You will receive 1 pair of our 3/8" thick A50 Steel U-Bolt plates with 3 pin mounting options, a pair of our Spring Perches with the same pin option to match, 4 - 10" x 5/8" Fine thread Grade 8 U-Bolts with 1/4" thick cut Hardened washers and real Ubolt Hardened Tallnuts, and a pair of Shock Brackets. This will get your Axle under the rig. BTW, this is NOT a Chinese made product that just can't hang with the big kids, this IS the Big Kid.
BTW, our Ubolts are the correct size for your Axle, not 1 size fits all.......these are offered with 8 Axle diameters and 5 Leaf Spring perch widths.........UPDATE.........Now also available in 3.5" D70/Sterling diameters & D60 GM, Ford, & Dodge front swaps too! And I almost forgot, Ford fullsize 3" Leaf Spring widths also......

I just used this exact kit yesterday to install my Old Man Emu Leafs and shocks, very beefy and the ubolt plate won't flex when you torque the bolts down...highly recommended....thanks Dan.

Got my replacement plates on Wednesday, POR-15'd and will install this afternoon before my trip to Rausch Creek.
What are the torque specs for these beasts? The FSM recommends 75ftlbs(stock) i cranked these monsters to 90ftlbs.
Dan can you elaborate?

I think you did well.
I hate to say it but I don't thnk the factory uses the FSM. They put Ubolts on to stay on! When I do it I set the impact to tight and I stop when it gets tired...(90-100FT/lbs)
