'82 shackle issues

so I have searched, so don't scream at me, but I cannot find stock shackles for 82 Toyota pickup. when you buy replacements do the plates come straight or are they bent like the OEM? My driver side outside shackle has further bent and snapped. the leaf was actually resting on the frame.the rear is also somewhat bent. seems like all aftermarket shackles have lift. let me know where you can order them. THANKS!

You might be able to go to a newer shackle like Mid-eightes from Toyota.

Toyota did sell shackle kits yet for the 87 era but time flies it might be a few years since I bought them.

You would need to measure them to be sure.

Used with new bushings is also a option.
