Dual shock quesiton

Hey Guys,
I have been looking all over the internet for a dual front shock mounting setup for my '76 F150 4x4. I have found several kits for Bronco's but nothing for the trucks. I tried the salvage yards looking for the radius arm caps and again nothing. So, does anyone have any idea where I can find a dual front shock set up? Hoops would be great. Any leads?

78-79 Broncos are exactly the same as 73-79 F150s as far as suspensions go. If you can find the upper shock mounts from a Bronco you can drill a hole in your existing lower brackets. Thats basically all Ford did and also what I did for my 79 F150. It really isnt worth all the work replacing the lower mounts unless you have something against drilling holes. If you do replace the radius arm ends you might as well replace the C bushings while youre at it.
