1987 truck front lower shock mount bracket? Where to find

Looking for a front lower shock mount bracket for my truck. My truck is currently equipped with front dual shocks but I think the brackets are the same between single and dual. I called around several parts store and even dealerships and nothing. Found out that this bracket is part of the front axle housing and that's how it comes. I would think there should be some place out there where I can get new or used brackets. I know I can find a loaner front axle but trying to minimize having to cut one off. If anyone can please point me in the right direction or even have some I would be ever grateful. Thanks

It has been a while since I looked at one, but I thought the lowers shared a common mount, but with a longer bolt that went through both?
