shock mount broke '70 F100

My nephew has a '70 F100 with a broken shock mount, I think on the driver's side front end. Is there any easy way to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

I have the same problem with my '69 F100 4x4. Let me know if you get some info. I'll check back after Church.

Will do SFC Davis, I will also check back after church.
I'm glad to see that there are a lot of Christian brothers in this forum.

I have repaired many shock mounts but cutting 2 pieces of heavy strap iron, drilling 1/2 inch holes in them and welding them in place. I usually bolt them to the shock to tack them in so the bolt holes line up. Oh, yeah, it is easier to drill the holes before you cut the pieces if you are using a drill press.
