Places like LMC Truck and Dennis Carpenter are really the go-to guys for parts anymore. Diesel core supports are plentiful in states like California. The problem is getting them to where we need them.

i was able to get a few of those frame brackets from Ford last year, they had to order them and had plenty in stock from thier warehouse. Good thing i bought a few spares if ur right on them being unavailable.
