I've got the perfect width 9" Ford rear end for my El Camino ('66). I'm looking for the upper and lower brackets to weld on. I know I've seen them before but can't remember where.
I haven't been able to find if Currie has them or not (looking on their website) but they'd be the same brackets welded to their housings.
Anybody have a source? Thanks!

Try Ridetech or Chris Alstons Chassisworks.
Or you can always make a jig off of your old rear end, make templates out of heavy construction paper, take them to a water jet shop and have them cut out of 3/16" cold rolled steel.

Here is another option, it's meant for the 78-88 G-body but should be adaptable to your car.

Here is what it looks like on a 9" axle

We (Chris Alston's Chassisworks) just finished our A-body rear coil-over conversion kit and g-Bar/g-Link suspension. Each can be ordered with bolt-on or weld-on brackets. The basic kit is part number 5824-A10.
We have the upper arm housing mounts we use for our FAB9 center section, but you may have to do some trimming or extending to get them to fit a factory 9" housing.
Bolt-in upper and lower mounts:

In the meantime, reply or call for more info.

I'm glad Chris Alston is finally offering the brackets and hardware apart from the triangulated 4 link/bar packages. I've got a Mopar and have called several times before trying to buy just the brackets and shock mounts without any luck. I've always been told I'd have to buy the Chevy or Ford 4-bar, etc. and modify it. This is perfect. Nice!
Thanks, Wes
