Default Leaf Spring mounts...

Hi all,
New to the forum and wish I had found this place earlier. I have a 97 F150 4x4 that recently the mounting bracket for the rear passenger leafsprings rusted through and broke off. The springs look ok but they are banging up against the bed. I'm preparing to take into the garage to have them look at it. Any idea what I might be looking in cost for this?

Hey, the bracket youre talking about is called a shackle. I just replaced mine yesterday. You can get them from Ford or go to Summitracing.com and order a set from there. I got a set from belltech for $65 that actually raises the back end 1/2 inch

I had both mine replaced by a local spring shop for $180 Canadian, parts, labor, and taxes included. It took them about an hour.
