You will need to find used ones. I do not think reproductions are available.

Are the brackets you are looking for the ones that are held in place by the U bolts on top of the springs or do they bolt to the frame? I have salvaged a couple of these trucks but don't remember which place the bracket is located. I will check to see if I have a pair.

The retainers sit on top of the spring seats and are held down by the U-bolts. I hope you have what I am looking for

I believe I have the retainers you are looking for. They were removed from a 1941 1/2 ton.

You can contact me at: don3955chevyaasbcglobalnt

Don,

Thank you very much for the time and effort you spent locating the rear spring bumper retainers for my 1946 Chevrolet Truck.

Thank God you were watching the posting, I could have been searching for God knows how long.

Regards,

Bernie
