Those are the dodge truck spring perches. They are a little cheaper from the dodge dealer. They work great. Part #P4120074

IMO, it's way easier to trim up the dodge perches for use all around than to salvage the stockers. Perches must be on top, cut the stockers off the bottom for clearance, save the "u-bolt-alignment-plate" to tack on the bottom too.
