These are a hard part to find. I had to have mine made by a machine shop. I took the rusted/broken ones in for the pipe size and had them weld a bolt to the pipe. After the weld was added, the head of the bolt disappeared.

I know it is not restoration perfect, but it was the best I could do.

Are you looking for the small plates that go under the U bolt on the springs? How many do you need? I think that I have a few in the parts bin.
