Upper Rear Shock Mounts??

Recently removed the rear shocks on a 1977 F150 4x4, upper shock mounts dissappeared into a pile of rust. The frame is okay, the shock mounting portion was bad. Is there anything I can replace them with, or do I need to fabricate something. If there is anything, were could I get them? Both sides were shot, along with the shocks, springs, etc.... This is a true learning experience!

You might try checking with a Ford dealership, but it's probably a salvage yard item.

I bought a new pair of rear shock mounts for my 79 F100 at a Ford dealer 2 years ago so they are still available. And they are surprisingly cheap, too (for a dealer item).

Roscoe,

You were 100% correct on that shock mount being available from Ford! Just got off the phone and placed the order.$45 a piece, but that's okay.
Thanks for the quick answer!
