Dust Shields

Has anyone found a place where you can buy new dust shields. I need two for a 1973 F-100 truck. The ones that I have were bent up when the local scrap yard pulled the I-Beams off for me. I was told that they came off a 1973 truck but the truck was sent to the crusher before I got there. I have straightened them out pretty good but would replace them if I can find them.

The serial number thing is going to bite me in the butt. The doner truck was already gone and has been crushed. I am installing these items on my 1969 F-100. I may have to use the old trial and error type deal until I can figure out what my new to me front end may be.

I see ID numbers stamped on your shields, they appear to be D3TA-2K004 & D3TA-2K005

I don't see suffixes, so these are either early 1973 (D3TZ-2K004/5-A) or late 1973 and early 1974 (D3TZ-2K004/5-B).

This looks like D3TA, I cannot make out the other, but if they came from the same truck, the other should be the same.

Thank you, I am going to use the info you gave me and get them. I also found a seal after I removed the dust shield and I got them off in one piece and since the parts houses here don't know what I am asking for I will have to reuse these. Thanks for your help and it will be put to good use.
