Question Cheaper source for spring shackles?

I have to replace the driver's side shakcle on my Ranger truck. I got quoted $30 from the dealership. Plus, they wanted $18 for the two bolts that will most likely have to be cut off. Does anybody have a cheaper source for the shackles? I planned on getting some nice Grade 8 bolts and nuts to replace the ones I am going to have to destroy. Also, do I have to remove the shackle braket that mounts to the frame to either remove or re-install the shackle?

Thanks for your help.

Rear shackle, little cheaper, but shipping may make it a wash:
