Try the Classified section and post WTB and also contact Harry Sheets, http://www.midwestwillys.com/

He may have them already detached or a donor frame he can remove them from.

Well, perhaps I can find a used one before enlarging those holes... not that I'm a purist but if I can have something that is correct I won't have to butcher this frame further.

Dre,
This sounded familiar.

It really seems like the aftermarket parts are a bit off.  You've already bought the parts so re-drilling seems the easiest.  No one will notice once the tub is on and washers/nuts are in place.

I'm putting the frame back together and just noticed that new body mount brackets (front two) won't line up with the holes in the frame - I do have one original front body mount bracket and in comparison to the new ones neither holes to mount to frame or hole for body mount bolt line up - go figure - should I just replace those and enlarge the holes for new bolts to go through and then worry about the body later? How did you guys do that, especially the ones that replaced body mount brackets on their frames during reconstruction?
