sway bar brackets

took a drive to a body shop about an hour away to dig through his bone yard. scored front and rear sway bars off a 78/79 2wd camper special. was able to get everything except the brackets that connect the swaybars to the front I-beams. Anyone know where I can order just those brackets from? not going to have much time to dig through the salvage yards anymore (baby on the way) so if I can order them online or through ford that would be great.

NOTE: The brackets only (not the sway bar) were also used on 1975/91 Econolines.

Is the rear sway bar off a 79 bronco the same as the camper special? Thanks Tony

I can't seem to find the full sponsor list to get to DEP. I like to find a picture of the "I" beam brackets to see if they work on A.I.M. lowered beams.
