Susp. part broke, need help identifying and locating new part

[Schneiderman]

Hey guys. I have a 1972 Dodge Coronet, it was my first car and I've had it about 8 years now. It's been pretty good to me but I finally had my first bit of trouble with it...

I don't know the technical term for the part that broke. It's not the leaf spring, it's not the leaf spring shackle. It's the bracket on the car itself that the front leaf spring shackle bolts to. This bracket is bolted to the body of the car, and then the shackle is (was) attached to the bracket.

I need to know the proper name of this part, and whether anyone still makes it so I can order a set and replace all of them on my car. Otherwise I'll have to get a used one from a junkyard and wait for it to break again...

Car has a 318 with a 8 3/4 rear, if that makes any difference.
