supports for straightening axle control arm

The axle control arms on the Ford 2600 were badly bent because of a worn axle center bearing
Before I can make a replacement bearing I needed to straighten and repair a few things
the Axle control arms were the worst being bent in 2 planes and being a tapered oval-ish shape compounds the problem
To prevent the arm from rolling over while attempting to straighten it I needed a fork like support to use on my press.
I was all prepared to cut and weld something up when I found a pair of brackets that fir the bill perfectly
