Help! I'm trying to get my 68 bird rolling so I can load it in the trailer and move it. I need some of the J-Clips that are inserted into the rear frame rails that the spring eye mount bracket bolts go into. Yes a common item among the usual classic car parts dealers, but I need them almost immediately. The car is in metro Milwaukee so I would like to buy them locally if possible. I tried all of the regular auto parts places. No-one has these.

Any ideas? I'm thinking maybe National Spring????

Thanks
OJ

It might be hard on a Sunday, but my local hardware store sells a small variety of them. Might not be the exact size or style as original, but should be good to get it rolling.
I would think a Menards would have them. They are usually open till 8 or so on a Sunday

I appreciate the suggestions, but I have plenty of wrong hardware already that would work if I didn't care about it looking correct. I have a tremendous amount of detailing in the rear springs and rearend and I only want to install it once. If I can't find the right stuff locally, I'll have to get some of the right stuff overnighted., Again, I do appreciate the comments.

Ah,OK. My impression from your post was you needed to load it on a trailer only. I figured correct parts could be found later.

Did you try Butler Classics?
