Try to contact some of the guys that has the VX og Bill Reilly front suspention. They will take them off, to fit the new suspention.
Or maybe contact XV og Bill Reilly directly. They have installed a few, so they should have a few lying around :Twocents:
Since we only live once, and all this is not just a dressed rehearsal, but the real thing............ Well, enjoy it!!!!

The original upper contol arm brackets are used on the RMS (Bill Reilly) front suspension, i did anyway   ;)

Damn...Just threw a set of shock towers with them attached away not 3 weeks ago.
I do have another set  thrown aside if you have no luck let me know and I'll take the plasma cutter to it.

Are you needing both sides????? When i get home I'll snap some pics and you can tell me exactly where you need them cut at.  I've got a plie of old sheetmetal I've been slowly cutting up and hauling out.  Wanted to post various little brackets or metal sections they don't repop for those that might need it. Just been busy.
Same as the random acts thread.  Just pay me back the shipping and I'm good. I'll be able to get them off this weekend....

Anyone have any tricks for patching these in so the alignment is still possible? I may be needing to replace one side on my car and wondered how to get it located properly?
wingless now, but still around.

Well I never did throw the other set of frame rails with the towers out so I have 3 sets here with those upper control arm brackets.
I'd prefer to cut/ship the whole tower so you have all your reference points for  when you go to install it again. Just more to ship the tower as opposed to just the brackets.
If I cut the tower off flush at the top of the rail will that work for you?
