What is this bracket called? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Looking to buy two of these, but not sure what this particular bracket and rubber block is called.

Checked a bunch of vendors and found the rubber bit, but not the bracket.

Might just make one and use a gusset in the center, but an original would be better.

thats called wore out, haha. I would go with bump stop frame mount bracket. probably need to find a used one or, like you said, fab one. maybe include the year of your truck in the title of the post and ask for a PM from anybody who may have one they don't need. lots of guys have removed the rear section of frame for a C notch option.

you could fab one that would have the gussets on the ends and that would allow you to use an easily sourced (locally) urethane bump stop from a newer vehicle that bolts in the middle. try energy suspension for a few options or simply google suspension bump stop under google images. lots are single bolt and some use 2 bolts. a local 4x4 shop could likely hook you up with something that would work well. I like to stick with something that is a stock replacement so it will be available in the years to come. I have used the bee's nest shaped ones from S10's before. they are round and use a single bolt to mount.
