Question discontinued suspension parts

Looking to replace the leaf springs on a 2001 Ram 1500 4x4, 5.9L, 9.25 rear axle. It seems the u bolt spring seat ( part # 52038217 ) and spring clip plate (
part # 52038457 ) are discontinued. Can these or an alternative still be found anywhere? I am able to find these parts for the Dana rear axles. Can I use ones for a Dana 60 on my 9.25 axle? I'm hoping they are the same thing with just a different part number. Thanks for your help

No you can't use a Dana one as the tubes are bigger. I know the u bolt spring plate is made aftermarket.
