i can get everything to convert to u bolt..the yoke is the EXACT SAME you just have to drill out the threads a lil larger for the u bolts...the u bolt kit is the same price as the strap kit

soon i will be selling u bolt yokes..i just got to buy a decent drill press takes about 20 mins per yoke if you got good bits...my yokes are already flat on the backside for the nuts for the u bolts

the yokes are not exactly the same and it involves more then just drilling out the threads. you need to machine down the ends so the U-bolt seats in properly. a stock strap style yoke has an almost flat strap.
