Worked on the passenger side bracket today. It needed more trimming then the drivers side to make it fit the frame cross member. Also, installed the new bushings from Moog. Next will make new connector for the inside of brackets to frame cross member. Photos below. Again will post more detailed photos once brackets are removed.

Will consider making the new connector a part of the '78 bracket, weld it to it and grind to look original.

Bottom photo is of drivers side bracket with material plan to use to add connector.
