wtb helper spring brackets

my 1 ton crew did not come from the factory with helper springs. I have located everything, new springs, perches w/plastic sleeves , spacers , and the top pieces. the parts that I still need are the reinforcement brackets that connect the spring perches to the frame . thanks for the help.

I can look through my removed parts from my CC dually. If I understand correctly, you're looking for the brackets that triangulated/gusset the rear spring perches to the horizontal part of the frame?

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.

Re: wtb helper spring brackets

The overload-spring brackets I cut off my frame did not have reinforcement brackets (they were just riveted to the side of the frame).

The rear leaf spring hanger did have a reinforcement bracket that was rivited to the bottom of the frame & gusseted the hanger where the bolt went through.

Are these what you need? These reinforcement brackets were only attached @ the rear/bottom of the frame. The front hangers did not have any additional gussets/brackets on my dually.
