Default Quick Help with suspension ??

Hey everyone...

Just joined but I have been reading this forum for a while and having a little trouble.

I noticed the front leaf spring hanger bracket is in bad shape and needs replaced asap...

I have searched the forum for a while but can't seem to find any threads with part numbers listed. I checked the local advance and napa stores with no luck...
I checked LMC truck but their prices seem a little high.

Just hoping someone could help me out with where to get the bracket/bushing/bolts needed and what the part numbers are.

Any help greatly appreciated

BTW its a 96 150 4wd 5.0

Front leaf spring bracket? The front has coils.

That makes much more sense. I don't have any other suggestions for you, except for the junkyard.

Just ordered mine from there. Were about $40 a piece. Look just like stock. I had to hit the holes with a step-bit though, couldn't quite get the 1/2" bolts through 'em. They were just a tiny bit too small.

Got it swapped. All in all easy job, took a little over an hour. The old bracket was much worse than I thought, but it's all good now
