Trouble finding replacement front shock mount

Has anyone replaced their front shock mounts? I've looked through all of my truck catalogs and haven't been able to find replacements. I didn't have the problem of the mount "egging" out the hole in the frame. Instead the nut holding the shock on just spun and spun and spun, but wouldn't come off! I had to split the nut to get it off, and found the threads on the shock mount were sheared smooth. Anyone know where to get these?

On 2WD trucks, they are just a stud, most good shocks sets come with them.
