Source for replacement radius arm brackets

Hey all,
someday I plan on removing the lift kit from my 1980 F-150 4x4(4" suspension lift) and I need a source for stock radius arm brackets.
The web parts locators don't have a selection option for these (that I can find) and the suspension places only seem to have lift kit brackets.

Can anyone help?

Thanks as always,

Dave S

PS: I'm also posting in the 80-86 forum

not really. I've gotten so used to hearing the parts counter say,"that part was discontinued 5,10,12 years ago", that I rarely even bother with them. The benefits of an old truck I guess.lol
I did find a source for the brackets (forum member helped)

Because stock ones come riveted to the frame.
