I just read a post today where someone said Classic Industries is selling repop frame brackets.  No bushings though.

No luck from Classic. Looks like I'll have to make some.

Firm Feel perhaps? I haven't checked on there for a while, so I'm not sure they offer them.

I've got these but they're not the prettiest. As you can see one of them has a rusted hole through it. I'm not sure if they're the same for all years but I can't imagine why they wouldn't be. If you're interested you can have them, just pay the shipping. Hey, it's Christmas & this place has helped me out a bunch.  Keep in mind shipping from Canada is a bit pricier and longer.

Jaybee, Thanks for the offer. may take you up on it.I'm gonna try bending
up a set and see how they come out. If it wasn't for the hole in one of
those, I would nab them in a heartbeat.

Mine had a hole in each of the straps.  I had my father-in-law braze them up.  That would be an easy fix.  Most people paint them anyway.  A little high build primer will take care of the pitting.

Well, I just realized that I also need the brackets for under the axle as well.
 If someone had all 4 of these pieces that would be just awesome.

I am also looking for the brackets that go under the axle, does anyone know if these are being remade?

Has anyone called Dick Ross at Firm Feel yet? They offer these pieces on their factory style rear sway bar kits. That means they have some means of sourcing the parts. While they do not list them as seperate items on their website, they may be open to selling them as a kit if you contact them and express an interest in getting them. In my experience, Dick and company are pretty willing to talk when it comes to satisfying customer needs.

For anyone else looking for the brackets that fit between the axle and the leaf springs that the sway bar mounts to, Firm Feel sells the two brackets for $135. I just got mine in the mail and they look great.
