The ones on my sons 72 1/2 ton were rusted completely thru. Had to scrounge the junk yards until we could find some in better condition. Couldn't find them aftermarket.

I had the right rear sadles break on my K20 pickup and K10 Suburban. I replaced them with a u-bolt flip kit from Offroad Design and have had no problems since. It was a cheap fix ($60) and turned the u-bolts so they were facing upward to keep them from getting damaged offroad. Check thier web site.
Anyone else breaking these? Hope this helps.
