i picked up a lift kit from AC with UCA's and a single add a leaf. i'm going to do the installation myself. i see with the spring pack it comes with a longer pin and spring, but not u-bolts.

my question is, will the single leaf require a longer u-bolt? i've heard that any time you take the u-bolt off that you should replace it - is this correct? are there any other parts that are required for the add a leaf?

thanks...

the general rule is you should replace the u-bolts for fatigue and safety reasons, yes. the stock ones should be long enough to accomodate one more leaf - have a good look and determine that one on your truck.
