Looking for suspension brackets
I'm doing a frame off restoration on my 87' F350. I've removed all the rear spring brackets from the frame. I've cleaned them up but due to rust I'm going to have to repair/weld them before I paint and re-install. Is there a source for new ones? I'm talking about the brackets that are rivited onto the frame and connect the shackle on the rear springs to the c-channel frame. I also would like to replace the helper spring stop brackets as well. Any ideas? Thanks.

Good luck finding those in stock. Dorman is the manufacturer. Great price, but I know when I needed mine they were on indefinite back order from Dorman. After 3 weeks of being strung along by another retail vendor I tossed in the towel and found Bob at ATS.
