I was looking thru several of my catalogs and was unable to find the brackets that hold up the running boards, the ones riveted to the frame. I need the first one in the front on the drivers side. mine is broken. are these available?

I see 'em on eBay now and then, check with Jimbo59 in the parts for sale section, or Jay in CA.

As far as I know you have to find used ones, as no one makes new ones.

I bought mine on Ebay and they were just like new. Sometimes it take some time before they appear on Ebay.

Be careful buying them sight unseen, I bought two last year that were supposed to be in excellent shape and when the got here they were heavily rusted with deep pits all over the entire surface. The holes were burned where he took the rivets out with a torch. I ended up using my old ones which were not rusted and just straightened them.

maybe I will just repair the one I have that has the ears at the top broken off. the pieces are still attached to the frame. just remove it weld it up and maybe add an extra set of bolts for added security
