4x4 Suspension Block

I'm in the middle of a frame-off restoration on my F250 high boy.

I had my frame and some of the suspension components powder coated.

Somehow, I assume accidentally, one of the rear axle suspension blocks got cracked, rendering it useless.

Does anybody have a suggestion where I might get one of these?

4x4 suspension parts are getting really rare in the junkyards in my part of the country.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

The part number off of the block is: C7TA-5729B

You can probably just get alum lift blocks from pepboys or Someplace like it. I don't know the dimentions of the stock block but you could cut down the alum ond if need be

Thanks for the suggestion 4x4jedi.

I will do that as a last resort.

I am hoping to get a stock replacement as the original block had holes for the u-bolts and the bump horn.

Bump -

I've been told that the crack in the lift block can be welded.

What does ya'll think?

Thanks.
