Mine are in bad shape and missing parts...this picture came from the Samba. Are pieces and parts available for these? Mine need adjustment screws and the white blocks plus it might be good to get new bushings. I can probably find the springs and sheet metal brackets and screws. Those adjustment pieces are pretty important tho.

Should I just post a WTB and buy the whole thing?

You can make the white blocks. I used some scrap relative hard plastic, cut it to size, drilled and tapped it. Works fine @ $-0-.

Looks like I will have to try to fabricate. No other responses here. I am thinking about UHMW. I saved a couple of side shelves from an old gas grill. Hacksaw and a drill and I am golden. I bet the bolt will thread itself in that stuff.

Bought mine at Autozone. Standard replacement fit ok. Lots of parts cars in the classifieds being stripped too.
