Default Rear leaf spring bushes/pins

Really struggling to find someone who has the rear leaf spring bushes and pins in stock for a 42-47 pickup. I'm in the uk so not sure of any smaller specialists who might have them. Any suggestions who to try please?

Ian, try F1 and F100 places, the pins and bushes were used upto 1956 I think. Look for a 21C part number.
Jseery, these are pins and bushes for parallel leafs used on 42 and up pickups. Not like the car transverse leaf setup.

Thanks Martin, I deleted earlier post. LMC truck caries a lot of parts. They have them IF 48-56 is the same as 42-47. Never heard the term "pins", interesting, learned something new again!

I ordered all the parts I needed to lower the truck to come over with the truck(if you follow me) unfortunately the wrong parts came for the rear. Now it seems the parts I need are on back order! Great

This is a larger post, but not sure it's much better.

I have a partial set. Would have to dig for them. Think there are 2 pins still left in the Fomoco box. Rod

C&G shows rear shackle kits for 42-56 pickups. You can reach them at www.cgfordparts.com for information. I believe they do ship to the UK.
