On the small bumper Pintos is the rear leaf spring shackle mount a two bolt bracket mounted to the frame like the one in this eBay add? Thanks all

Thanks HOSS429, the rear shackle mount brackets on my 75 are like the one in the ebay add. They're sandwiched between the bumper mount assemblies and the frame, sharing mounting bolts. I want to remove the safety bumper mount assemblies and bolt the shackle mounts back on the frame. I was hoping the 71-73 shackle mount brackets were the same as the 75's.
