Most tire shops can bend you up a set to whatever length and size you want. To give you an idea, 7/8" U-Bolts for our International F9300 were $35 each. Your will likely be half of that cost.

I've never heard or seen any tire shops having the set up to do it around hear but I'll look into it. Do you know of any websites?
