WTB Rear housing seats - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need a pair of rear end housing seats, perches or pads for a leaf spring rear. They are the saddles that go under the housing and u-bolt up over the leaf springs. Anybody know what i'm talking about? Does anybody know where to find them?

Thanks

Just a note I had to look for these once myself...and there are difference between leaf sprig rear for a 4x4 compared to a 2wd in the 1/2 tons. They are a different tube size between the two.
There are casting numbers in the 2nd style posted brackets to make sure you get the ones you want.

Those are like mine I need the 2wd 1/2 ton pickup version. Ed at mothertruckers has a set I'll call him today to check if they are 2wd. Thanks for all the help. I couldn't do this project without you guys and this board.
