Stock Running Board replacement on a 96 Bronco

[tokarzj]

Does anyone have any information on where to find replacement hardware/brackets for stock 96 bronco running boards?

The metal brackets seem to rust out easily, and since the plastic still looks good, I wanted to leave them on.

Are there any aftermarket stock replacement brackets or would it be easier to machine my own brackets?

Let me know if you have any information...

My boss tried looking everywhere for them, couldn't seem to track them down. He has a friend of his that works in a machine shop of sorts building him a pair. But If anyone finds them, lemme know too. (The ones on his wife's Bronco arent going to last forever.)

But as of NOV 2009, according to Iteun; "....The dealership now says the part is not available anymore ..."

Ask local dealers if they have it in stock or can locate one,
