What size socket? rearend u-bolt

Going on a road trip tomorrow to pull a rear end and have to gather up enough tools. Can't remember socket size for the rear end u-bolts on a trailing arm truck.

I’m quite new to these trucks (well all trucks to be fair). My 69 c10 has trailing arms and only 2 u bolts. One either side. Pic; https://i.imgur.com/AlrnaOn.jpg
Sorry about the crap link don’t know how to put the pic in proper like.

But anyway, I’d just take an adjustable. The nuts on my truck were about 30mm if I remember correctly. I will double check if you want.
