Radius Arm Bracket?

I just looked under the truck today and found my driver's side front shock flapping about in the breeze. It looks like the bracket that holds the shock to the radius arm has sheered. I'm just dealing with a stock suspension 4x2 1973 F-100.

I'm not seeing a replacement bracket on the sponsors, NPD, LMC, etc. I'm looking at the service manual and it is listed as "BRACKET 18126-7" in the CHASIS manual (pg 14-21-04). Where does one go to get a new bracket???

I'm clueless with suspension stuff, so any help would be appreciated.

Check out Early Bronco Restoration Full Size Bronco Restoration Classic Ford Bronco Parts For Sale They might have one. Or else call a good ford dealer and maybe if your lucky that part number might do some good. If that doesnt work you may need to fab up a new one.

Yeah, I checked them (Bronco Graveyard) before I posted. Only the rear lower shock mounts are available through them :|
