you never re use suspension Ubolts, they strecth and will eventually break.
By some new longer ones. install them then cut them to proper length.

Doug is correct, never re-use U bolts....BIG NO-NO (They hold the axle on ya know). I always use truckspring.com for custom lengths and grade 8 bolts but a local shop could make you some....I just do not have a god place near me.
