The Ford website is down, so I cannot tell if the following are still available from Ford...or not.
I'll edit the info in when the website wakes up. Over 50 US Ford dealers have both available.
E5TZ-5775-D .. Shackle Bracket-Rear Spring FRONT
1985/91 F250/350 4WD with Sterling 10.25" rear axle / Misc: 1992/96 F250/350 / 1997 F250 H/D & F350.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
EOTZ-5775-C .. Shackle Bracket-Rear Spring REAR
Misc: 1980/96 F150/350 2WD/4WD & Bronco / 1997 F250 H/D & F350.
U-bolts: Does your truck have an auxiliary spring? Is it a Regular, Super or Crew Cab?

It was probably discontinued at least 20 years ago... but dealers who have them and didn't return them are stuck with them, and Bill says there are at least 50 such dealers. NOS vendors might have some, too.

We have ones on hand for the older models. I don't believe they are listed on our website currently but we do have them available.
