Question:
Please provide a precise dimension for the distance from the CENTER of the bolt on one side to the CENTER of the bolt on the other side. It appears that the actual INSIDE width measured from the inside of each bolt is greater than 1.5 Thank You!

I pulled a Replacement U-Bolt with Nuts # 1753223 from our warehouse to measure the distance between the U-bolts measured on center and found that dimension to be right at 2 inches.
Check out the video I attached that shows me taking this measurement with a dial caliper.
