    I'm in the midst of some suspension changes on a 60's suburban. I can't get the U-bolts nuts to move and I believe I'm going to have to cut them off. Problem is, they're 3/4" bolts. All the local auto parts stores have 1/2".
    I know I can order them but, I'm impatient.
    Anyone know of a shop that could bend me some bolts or may have them in stock?

    Reading Spring, 142 South 4th street, Reading Pa. (610)-375-4551. They usually have everything or will bend them up while you wait. Very reasonable cost as well.

    Good luck

    Have you checked for a spring shop in your area? Like Koz said in the previous post most of them will bend them for you while you wait.

    Thanks for the responses fella's.
    Since it's Saturday, I didn't have any luck. Everything was closed.
    At least I know where to go Monday.
