Leaf Spring Brackets

I need the back brackets for leaf springs on a 79 F100 Custom. Short of the junk yard, where could I find these?

I used the rear spring hangers and spring shackles for a 1997 F350.

beartracks--"They are called shackles"
(The spring hangers are rivited to the frame)
(The shackles bolt to the hanger and to the spring)
