Default Fiberglass rear spring install

I'm trying to install a fiberglass rear spring in my 69, but I have been unable to locate a cushion / mount for the center of the spring where it attaches to the rear cover. Anyone have any experience with this type of installation or know where I can locate the hardware I need?

Thanks!

Try www.vbandp.com They will have what you need. They also have the installation instructions on their site.

Don't throw your original leaf springs away. Do a search on ride height or bolt length . The f-glass rear spring makes the rear higher .
