Are the upper shock brackets on the 67-72 4x4’s the same ones that are riveted to the frame on the 2wd’s with leaf springs? If so, they are still available through any Workhorse dealer. Workhorse uses that old GM upper shock bracket still today on the W42 chassis (old P42 GM stripped chassis).

I don’t have a picture to compare but if you can get a picture of what you need I can confirm these brackets are the same ones. I know the Workhorse brackets are the same as what is on the upper rear of my ’68 GMC 2wd with leaf springs.

Sutliff Chevrolet in Harrisburg is the closest Workhorse dealer to Highspire.
