got a set from jackit.com for 80 shipped, but not greasable. I think they offer a set of greasable ones though.

Additionally you could make a set if you or someone you know can weld. Just need some flat stock, a welder, and a drill press and thats pretty much it.

o yea i know how to weld, ive only got a lil 70 amp ac at home so it wont do the job, plus i was thinking i would stick with greasable shackles. is there a good advantage to them? if not i have a fewplaces where i can go use a welder. i welded brackets to mount a brush gaurd on the front of my 2000 blazer, a gaurd off of a nissan. and i think the brackets hold better than any stock one would.
