I thought that might come up. When taking my truck apart I was surprised to learn the U-bolt attaches differently for my rear than for my front. The round part of the U-bolt is on top of my rear leaf but the round part is under my axle in the front. I thought maybe the guy before me did it ass backwards but I saw that LMC's catalog and my factory 1971 chassis manual had it the same way. I'll try 6t727t2 or teeitup as recommended. Thanks.
