Years for front spring hanger interchange...

This morning, I pulled the springs in my 79 Bronco to replace bushings. I found that the front left hanger has the inboard hole has some fretting corrosion from the bolt being loose at one point.

I'm having a hard time finding the part, though. JBG has them, but I'd like to compare some options; I'd prefer to keep the same stock holes and theirs needs to have new holes drilled.

Does anyone know if the 1980+ are the same part? I can find those stock units for sale at several places.

Not the same.
D8TZ-5775-A (replaced D3TZ-5775-B) .. Rear Spring FRONT Hanger Bracket / Obsolete ~ No Ford dealer or obsolete parts vendor has any.

1978/79 Bronco / 1973/79 F100/150 4WD except Super Cab / 1973/79 F250 2WD except 8,100 lb. GVW & Crew Cab / 1977 F250 4WD from serial number Y20,001 (not a High Boy) / 1978/79 F250 4WD
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EOTZ-5775-C (replaced D3TZ-5775-C & D8TZ-5775-B): The rear spring REAR hanger bracket used with all of the above .. is the same as misc 1980/96 F100/350 & Bronco.

And...it's still available from Ford.

So, just to be clear, the rear hanger IS the same as the later models, through 96 but the front is not?

Or is it still undetermined if the front interchanges?
