I support new U bolts and nuts....
It will cost money but the old ones may be stretched to near failure.... have new ones made.
Be carful when you cut the existing U bolts .... in case the center bolt may have failed or will fail when cutting the U bolts.
You should carefully inspect the spring pins and hangers for wear and the brass inserts may need replacing...... Dirk has original NOS pins..... well greased they will out live you.
