I have an 89 Toyota Pickup with 4" Suspension Lift and a 3" Body lift. It's up on 35" BFG's. I need to replace the U-Bolts on the rear axle becuase they won't tighten and my rear axle shifts around as I drive jerking the truck around on the road. I was going to cut the old ones off and put new ones on but I'm not sure if there is anything I need to be aware of before I do that. Has anyone else done this before?

Nope, nothing that you need to know. It's just as straight forward as you think it is. Cut them off, one at a time, put a new one on, tighten it up, and you're good to go!
