coil seat problem

I just installed a 6.5'' lift in my 1977 Ford Ranger F-100 stepside. The rear was np but when i got to the front i noticed the coil seats were done with, the upper pieces are pretty well gone and the the lower peice arent much better the springs sit in but there nuthing to hold em there. I have had absolutely no luck in finding any accept bronco graveyard but it will cost quite a bit to send them to canada. ive seen i a few ppl fab there own seats around the web anyone ever do this? i am an autobody tech and have lots of access to welders, rollers, and whatever else. any help would be great. Thanks

try some j-yards! thats prolly your best bet!

you just live near the border and own a few acres with a street address, easier/cheaper to get parts
