    Hi, guys. Awhile back, one of the 'heads' posted some brackets he had found by an early Ford parts vendor. These are the front frame-to-brake hose brackets, plain steel, have a look like a tombstone, for better description.
    Thanks in advance, I've checked with Stop Shop, (think they are more 'bowtie' strain...)
    Need these for my '47 Fordor AND my newly converted Disc Brake setup on my '55 F100.

    Thanks, but seen those... The ones I need are about 2.25" tall, shaped like a 'tombstone, or reversed teardrop. They are straight with the 5/8" bore on the big end, and a 90* tab (1/4" at the bottom, also 5/16" hole thru small end)
    The edges seem to be a stamping, as they are straight sides, wish I could find a pic.

    Thanks, @chop&drop.
    $26 the pair, GREAT pics. Shipping zoomed to $39, Judas Priest! Well... I got the shape.
    Tomorrow will be cool in the A.M...
    Time to put my new band saw to work. 10 ga. mild steel, braked on 2 sides, 2 holes...
    20 minute job. :cool:
