Default Rust Repair

Hey Gang,
Anybody know where I can get replacement body mounts? I'm not talking about the "biscuits" that hold up the body, I'm talking about the formed sheetmetal piece that is welded to the body that the bisciut bolts to. Mine are rusted out. I happen to be a fabricator by trade and of course I can make them but I thought I would try to find them first. If someone already makes them they'll probably cost less than the materials and time!!

Might be able to get them from dodge, I think I'd get a gasser vin number to order them for, I think Dodge adds 100 bucks when they hear Cummins.

Thanks Tireman,
I haven't tried the dealer yet, I usually go to them as a last resort. I've gotten some parts from LMC and I am very happy with their service but they don't have these parts.
I was hoping that maybe there was a similar company that maybe sold to body shops or something. The way these trucks rust I'm sure Somebody must sell them!

You might be able to find a rust free cab that has collision damage at a scrapyard and cut them out.
