In search of rear lower shock mounts
I'm looking for a set of 57-60 rear lower shock mounts. Any available?

Please, when asking questions, list ALL the pertinent info, we are not mind readers.
Year, series, 2WD or 4WD?

My apologies..... I'm replacing the Dana 44 under my 1955 F100 with a 9 inch (2wd). The new axle housing has a larger diameter @ 3 inches. I plan to use the lower rear shock mounts and tie plates from a 57-60 f100 to accommodate the larger diameter axle housing and allow me to keep my shocks mounted basically as they are in the current setup. I thought mid-fifty carried reproductions, but have discovered that they do not. So I am now on the hunt for the original equipment ... lower rear shock mounts and tie plates that hold the axle to the leaf springs on a 57-60 F100 (2WD)... Honestly, I am assuming 2wd are the ones I want.

1957/60 F100 2WD: Upper (upper) pic: Rear shock absorber and attaching parts // Lower pic: Rear spring and attaching parts.
All these parts are obsolete, very few will be available NOS
And these are just the
basic part numbers, not the complete part numbers. I'll have to look 'em up.

Thanks! I'm definitely not looking for NOS... just used with some life left.

Kevin, found some close to me in North Texas. Browne Salvage has more, and they ship...

Great! Sorry I never got you the part numbers. I still haven't had time to clean mine up to see them

You will
not find
any part numbers on these parts, you probably won't find any ID engineering numbers either.
