I have nearly everything back together, subframe, swing arms, etc and am left with these hoobigomers. I think they mount on the bolt that holds the shock to the swing arm for keeping the ABS pulse wire off the shock so it does not chafe. I searched all over REALOEM and dug up a number of under-car photos here and on BringATrailer and did not see any evidence of it or where they would go. Any help would be appreciated.

During part of my rebuild this past weekend I came across those two hoobigomers and remembered your post from last week. Just like you said, there isn't a RealOEM parts number or illustration for these clips (that I could find). So I dug through my tear down photos and confirmed that these clips secure and keep the ABS pulse generator wire away from moving parts. They attach at the brake hose/line bracket on the back of the brake dust shield. Below are a few pictures to illustrate where they're located. Note that the plastic clip for the wire in the rebuild photos isn't in place yet. Apologies for the dark pictures...

Thanks for going to the trouble to dig this up. I got to thinking about it and putting that plate on the bolt that holds the shock would be pretty dopey. I am sure it would get ground to tinfoil over time.

Your pictures are exactly what I needed, most appreciated. I'll post pictures of mine when I get them back together.
