Anyone have a part # for m416 axle u bolt? I have done research and from what I have found it seems that they are the same as the 50 cj3 rear axle ones. But still not 100% sure. I have emailed a few places and they don't seem to have an answer for me.
Thank You.

Anyone have a part #
It appears this is old info, walck's does not have any for $3.60 anymore and appear to be $10 or so but not sure if they are the right ones.

I recognize this is an old thread, but it came up first in my google search for this, so in case anyone comes here looking for this and has some uncertainty as I did, I was able to order from Walck's 4WD. It is part number A8578. I haven't received it yet to validate, but the measurements seem correct. If it turns out to be the wrong thing, I'll come back and update, but I feel good about it.

This link should take you to their search page result with this product: https://walcks4wd.com/catalogsearch/result/?q=A8578

Good luck, future people.

Parts arrived today and confirmed they are exactly the right bolts, and come with flat and lock washer and nuts to install.
