coil spring bracket / pocket (upper)
considering replacing these when doing springs -as they are rusted bad.
looking at dorman / aftermarket options.
vin 1FDUF4GY9GEA15544
2016 f450 - 2wd
dealer gave me part numbers:
BC3Z-5A306-B (front left upper)
7C3Z-5A306-BR (front right upper)
dorman cross ref 7C3Z-5A306-BR to 999-950 -right side bracket
Suspension - Coil Spring Bracket | 999-950 | Coil Spring Bracket | Dorman Products - Aftermarket Auto Parts & OE Solutions
but there is no Left side bracket listed, so i contacted dorman, they said they dont make a left side bracket... odd.
but i found online resellers listing dorman 999-951 -left side bracket for 08-16
Suspension - Coil Spring Bracket | 999-951 | Coil Spring Bracket | Dorman HD Solutions
but dorman support says this fits only 08-10 superduty and they only make the left side bracket for these years.
did i reach a complete buffoon at dorman support? is their online listing incorrect or correct?
it makes no sense. Im sure someone else has been down this rabbit hole before,
please help, thanks in advance!

I'd just get new oem if you don't want to look for a good used set off a rust free truck.
New OEM is around $140 where dorman is $120...that was for the left side going off the part numbers you posted.

Best price I was coming up with for the new oem parts with ship and tax was about 360, I bought the 2 new Dorman parts yesterday came to 150 with ship and tax for both. Will have to report back on the fitment when I actually get to do job
