Yeah, I got that one from my brother in-law, he's a creative mother. The seats a guy out in riverside hooked me up. Let me know if you need the info.

Good luck getting a set. I Just got a set yesterday, after trying to for 6 months. Seems as if nobody wants to remove them from the frame before they junk them. It's only 6 rivets per bracket but you would think you were asking them to give you one of there ribs.

shawno72 · 03-06-2012, 10:31 AM

Yeah that may be tough to find. Wrecking yard prob your best bet, just gotta figure a way to get them off. You could also post a want to buy ad, you'd be surprised how many people are willing to help on this forum, that's what I would do first.

I am sure someone has them lying around in the garage somewhere...

C/10 King · 03-06-2012, 08:54 PM

Jess you have 4 months find the hangers and finish till our next C/10 get together at the "Brothers Show" good luck!

jessfloho · 03-10-2012, 10:08 PM

Hey guys, here's an update, I have to credit John Oro with this one. I was telling him I was undecided where to put my switchers and gauges for the air ride, he said, well if your taking out the AC and Heater, place the components there. So here it is, tell me what you think.
