Last i had heard was dodge stopped carrying those brackets. You might just have to get it welded up.

You still need the bracket, the brace just helps keep the bracket/frame from breaking again.

And yeah it may be discontinued from dodge. I purchased one in 2007 but who knows....

The New box bracket PN # 52037876 is slightly thicker then the original. As for the reinforcement bracket is being reproduced by Dodge Connection @ $48.00

For a How To on boxing the frame at the box see this link to Ramcharger Central
