I have never made my own, they are very inexpensive and readily available form numerous mfr's....I think they are like $30 or something. That was my preferred method.

Jeff is right. I have made the before, but only because they didn't have one for my application in stock. It was way more time and effort than it was worth.

Re: 1980 c-10 flip kit brackets

thanks guys. i was hoping that someone here locally would have them but that is a no go. i thought it would be easy enough to make a set but if the ones i found on evil-bay go for a good price i will try to get those.
where do you find the brackets for 30 bucks. the couple of sites i looked at had them for 80-100 bucks. i do not need the u bolts as i allready have those so i just need the brackets themselves.
