These guys have all kinds of prefab brackets including dozens of shock mounts.

Most of their stuff is stamped mild steel but some items are available laser cut and/or 4130. The prices are decent and shipping is prompt. You can order online or by phone and they'll send you a free paper catalog, too, if you want.

Since Level II's have the same diameter axle tubes as a 2001-back Ex, the LII spring plates will fit perfectly.

I ended up ordering perches and shock mounts made by performance accessories(same company as my body lift)
I ordered them from this site.

For the U-bolts I ended up ordering a set of lift blocks with U-bolts for an F150. I shouldn't need the blocks for any reason but for the price it works. Since they are made to work with the lift bolts they should be more then long enough.
U-bolts, perches, and shock mounts came to about $90.
I still need the upper spring plate but i think I will either buy it new from ford or buy a junkyard piece. I guess if I had to i could fab them.

Hey what size spring perches do I need to order 1-3/4", 2", 2-1/2" or 3"? Also on the shock mount do I need to order the shock pins or would the ones that come with the shocks work?
Also I just ordered traction bars from James Duff will they work with the f-150 u-bolts and plates? I ordered the 31 spline James Duff mounting plates.
Thanks to anyone and sorry for all the questions

You do not need the shock Pin I got them but didn't need them.
Not sure about the trac bars. I think so but not 100%. I ordered stock Bronco/F150 spring plates, so I would think that would be good.
