Anyone know where these two parts go on a c30?

There are 2 of them they look like flat strap metal with 3 holes drilled in them. However they are curved.

My son helped me pull this sucker apart 2 years ago and neither of us can remember where they go.

Please help this is driving me nuts!

I’ll post a better pic tomorrow when I get to the shop.

Not knowing the dimensions, I'll throw this out there. Is it a support brace for the front crossmember? Notice the 3 bolt holes where it bolts to the frame. Possibly it sits inside the frame to help clamp it.

That’s what I thought too but it isn’t even close to lining up the holes are way off plus it’s got a bow or arc to it.

I’m going to say we need a picture of the complete piece and something for scale. The picture isn’t even of the complete piece. I’m up for a challenge but c’mon

C’mon if you would have read the entire initial post you would have seen, I said I would post up a better pic.that was the only one I had in my phone at the time of the post. I didn’t get a chance to take a better one today but I will tomorrow.

If I’m reading your post wrong my apologies, but if I’m not and you are being condescending then feel free to do that elsewhere. I didn’t join this forum for that kind of experience and or exchange.

I’m not being condescending, I’m serious. Asking for help is what we’re here for but we at least need some information. I did read your post and waited the day for a better picture but still don’t have it. It’s be like me asking a question like....
My motor is making a noise, what is it guys?

Ok here is a better pic of the 3 hole flat strap looking pieces.

Plus as a bonus 2 more mystery parts.

These look to be bump stops of some sort, I could be wrong though has happened once or twice lol!!!

I don't know what these are, but I think a lesson has been learned here, take pictures before tearing things down so one has a reference when putting things back together. My initial thought was adjustable rear leaf spring shackles, but there would have to be four of them.

Part #2 looks like the rear spring hanger braces. My K30 has ones on the front and rear, not sure about the 2WD. It would be part #11 or the one with no part number to the right of #14.
