U bolt plates

[anakinvader]

Hello I am new here. I have a 94 1500 14 bolt rear axle semi float. I was trying to find u bolt plates. The driver side oem has been discontinued right side seems to be available. I bought 2 husky spring plates from rock auto and in the description it said it fits left and right but I wanted thoughts on the subject. Has anyone found an alternative or used the huskys? The part number is m1023

I used these from ATS Springs.

Cast iron.

Did they fit well?? The one thing I noticed about the husky springs plates is that the middle section doesn't seem to touch the axle. It looks lower than the outer sections that do touch the axle.

I shouldn't say seem... they just straight up are lower than the outside edges

I went with this one. I think all of the plates of that design are built like that. At least all of them that I have seen for the 14b.

Probably touches when torqued though.
Yes, mine fit fine.

Oh ok. Thanks for the information and links. I should have just come here first before buying

I have this kit on the shelf right now, waiting for my 14B swap. Seems like a much improved design over the stock dirt holders.

I just trimmed the u-bolts and got them torqued down yesterday. It is definitely a better design.
