Radius arm bracket
I found a 1978 f250 2wd locally that has a broken driver side radius arm bracket. I'm considering buying the truck but haven't found the bracket on any sites I've looked at. Where can I order one of them? I did find an NOS part on eBay but they want $100 for it which seems rather high.

RED TAYLOR FORD in Corning AR has 1 = 870-857-3518.
NOS PARTS SOURCE in Olathe KS has 1 = 913-220-5746.
NOS PARTS LTD in Waxahachie TX has 1 = 972-937-2201.

Note: Ford changed the brackets and the radius arms in 1979. Both as a set can be used on 1965/78's, but not individually.

No it will not, because 1980 and later is different than 1965/78, different than 1979.
The bracket used in 1979 will only work on 1965/78's if you also use the 1979 only radius arm.
Gee whiz, I already gave you the applications for the correct bracket and the sources that have it NOS
