Product Overview:

The force and stress placed on stock components during off-roading can be extreme, and we’ve seen firsthand how weak factory U-bolt plates just don’t hold up. After bending stock plates time and time again, we knew it was time for an upgrade. That’s why we designed our Extreme Duty U-Bolt Kit—built to take the abuse, handle rough terrain, and keep your rear axle secure no matter where the trail takes you.

Extreme Duty Leaf Spring U-Bolts Kit | 78-79 Ford Bronco

Upgrade your 78-79 Ford Bronco suspension with our Extreme Duty Leaf Spring U-Bolt Kit, built to handle the stress of off-roading and rock crawling. Stock U-bolts and plates just don’t cut it when pushing your rig to the limit—that’s why we designed this kit to be stronger, thicker, and more durable to keep your rear axle and springs mounted solid.

Why Choose Our Extreme Duty U-Bolt Kit?

  • Heavy-Duty Construction – Built with 5/8" thick steel plates (compared to the weaker 3/8" aftermarket options) for extreme durability.

  • Stronger U-Bolts – Upgraded from stock 1/2” U-bolts to Heavy Duty 5/8” U-bolts for superior strength and stability.

  • Precision Engineering – Unlike cheap flat plates that create rigid pressure points, our routered edges match stock contours to prevent spring breakage under articulation.

  • Corrosion-Resistant – Zinc-plated U-bolts and plates for long-lasting protection against rust and wear.

  • Trail-Tested – Designed for hardcore off-roaders and rock crawlers who demand maximum durability in extreme conditions.

Fitment Note:

  • Fits: 1978-79 Ford Bronco
  • Does NOT Fit: 73-79 F150 4x4 and 77 1/2-79 F250 4x4
  • U-Bolts measure 3 1/4" W x 9 3/4" L

When it comes to keeping your rear axle secure and trail-ready, don’t settle for weak stock parts or inferior aftermarket options. Upgrade to Extreme Duty U-Bolts today and hit the trails with confidence!

A: Yes, our 5/8" Extreme Duty U-bolts are Grade 8.


Asked by Jerme Miner, January 31, 2022

Q: I'm confused as to why these will fit a 79' Bronco but not my 79' F-150, how are they different?

1 Answer

Answered by sales - January 31, 2022

A: The F150 has a block, atop the axle under the leaf springs. The 78-79 Bronco does not. With the F150's block in place, they are simply too short. Not enough threads or length.

These are definitely thicker u bolts vs stock, but they're actually 9/16", not 5/8". The plate is a solid 5/8" though.

I mud race my Bronco and the extreme duty u-bolt/retainers keep the rearend firmly attached and the 39.5 boggers planted.

This is great product you should be using if you're wheeling or crazing the streets. I've purchased two sets and will again for every Bronco I own.

Great Kit. Seriously strong and the correct width for Bronco springs. Super heavy duty plate. The only thing keeping 5 stars is the plate is not plated or panted. Looks like it is plated but 3 weeks later had surface rust. Remove and paint took care of it.
