I'm going to say no as I'd imagine the threads on the u-bolts will not go up high enough.

If this is a GMT800 truck you're working on you will need 4 of these= pn-15002781

That's the GM part number for 2WD U bolts.

I can make you U-bolts on the U bolt maker. and when i say "i" i mean you because that things from the 50's and scary.... They are threaded way far up so it will work, I say to cut them once they are on tho cause they will probably be long hanging down. uhh i dont know if we have any tho
