I don't know, but it looks super heavy duty. It's probably parts from a 4x4 conversion kit? Just a guess.

No clue other than I don't believe they are OEM parts. Possibly something to do with 4-link or maybe bags? Good luck, I hope someone knows. Got me curious now too!

Looks like it could be Porterbuilt welding. Could those be some LS engine mounts?

Re: Anyone know know what these brackets are?

almost looks like 4 link suspension items. Was someone planning a pro/street build?

I just noticed that these brackets fit together and the two brackets are at a slight angle. So I am thinking maybe something to do with trailing arms or as a few guys said some type of 4 link.

The other pieces are also a mystery.

Thanks again for any help

Those pieces are part of the truss set up for a Porterbuilt front crossmember. The motor mounts connect to them and it ties everything together with the crossmember and the frame.
