Default Kmember Hardware question

Searched and not finding the info I need, probably using the wrong words.

There are four brackets that go into subframe that kmember bolts to. Mine are showing there age and before I spend a ton of time curious if these are available still or if there are other options? Part numbers?

Thanks!

You could try Hawks for used ones. I’m not aware of an aftermarket replacement. How are they worn out? It’s not like these things are threaded and torqued everyday.

Thanks for the reply

threads are in fine shape. Just in the processing of rebuilding the car and they are all flaky rusty. Can wire wheel and paint but if there was a new option was investigating that

Curious about which brackets, can you post a pic ?
The layout catalog doesn't show any brackets there.

Referring back to my post#4, it's not a bracket. GM layout catalog shows it as # 10156327 nut front crossmember used with bolt # 10234622 M12x1.75x92 special reduced shank cone point.
Long discontinued as available as a new part.
Your Post #3 sounds as the best option.

I’d sand them down and repaint them.
