Default Replacement 67-72 Chevelle Spring Perches

Does anyone know if spring perches for 67-72 Chevelle are available aftermarket? I just bought a 67 Chevelle CF coded(3.73 Posi)12 bolt that was in a 53 Chevy truck of all places. The perches were hacked off and make shift leaf perches were installed as well as ladder bar mounts. The good news is the numbers did not get touched. The rear is definitely worth saving, I would rather just buy new perches than have to rob them from another rear.


Any input will be greatly appreciated,

Jason

Ooops, CF is 3:31 Posi. Either way, same question.


Thanks,

On second thought, I think I'll get a donor 10 bolt for the parts.

I know of no one who makes perches. Your 10 bolt donor is the best alternative.
