Ellen: Hey everybody, I'm Ellen here at etrailer.com, and we're taking a quick look at the replacement hardware for your Blue Ox spring bar. If something happened to that original hardware, maybe it got rusted out, or damaged, or bent, or something else happened to it, and you just need this hardware to replace, this is going to be a great way to do it without having to replace the entire unit. I will say, though, if your weight distribution went through something like a crash, or some other kind of catastrophic failure, it's probably a good idea to get a whole new replacement. But again, if just the hardware is bad, everything else is fine and is up to code and all that good stuff, then this is going to be an easy way to fix that hardware.It's going to come with everything you see laid out on the table here; I'll go over those parts with you. We'll get our two U bolts; these are going to be 3/8" bolts, and then we'll have our locking 3/8" nuts to go with that, and also the fender washers, one for either end. As far as the size of the nut, to take it off, it looks to be about a 1/2", maybe about 9/16", actually, to get that off.
The distance of the U bolt, or the total length here, about 2". Distance in between the two posts is about an 1 1/4", just to give you some reference points, in case you're not using this for the same application, maybe you want to use some of it for someone else, just for reference.That's pretty much it for a quick look at the replacement U bolt kit for your Blue Ox weight distribution. I hope this helped in deciding if this is the right replacement part for you. We do have a lot of other replacement parts for Blue Ox, and all kinds of accessories for your towing-weight distribution needs. Check us out right her at etrailer.com.
Thanks for watching.

It’s working out perfectly. It was a matter of finding the right sized product and etrailer put in the extra effort it took.

Bravo to the Blue Ox System. Gives me confidence pulling my Airstream. Could not be more satisfied. Truly!

I reached out to the manufacturer and if the u bolts break then it is typically from the system bottoming out or having too much tongue weight for the bars to handle.

Another 10,000 miles its time to rotate the u-bolts so the chains wear at a different place. Allowing wear making diameter of u-bolts section less requires changing. Failure would cause unwanted yaw inputs.
