    I'm building up a damaged set of rear leaf springs on a '73 Maverick and need to find a set of shock mounting plates that anchor to the bottom of the leaf U-bolts. I can get springs and shocks golore, but these lower anchor plates are hard to find! Anyone have any ideas? :hmmm:

    P.S. - I think the '71-77 Mavericks had them all the same.

    I used early Mustang pieces. Had to partially cut the shock mounting tabs, re-angle and weld them.
