For a u-bolt that will fit a 3" wide x 1-1/2" tall trailer frame you can use the CE Smith U-Bolt part # CE15252A which is 3" long x 3-1/8" wide x 7/16" diameter. Please note, the u-bolt width must be wider than the width of your frame in order to attach, otherwise it would not work which is why you need the 3-1/8" width listed above. The 3" length is the shortest we offer for the above width.
