I'm assuming by spring plates you are talking about the leaf spring u-bolt plates? Ruffstuff makes good stuff, and theirs are beef.

I, personally, used Ford Explorer spring plates with my 8.8. They were pretty beef too.

Try DPG Offroad. They make u bolt plates that double as a bumpstop. I think they're around 70 for just the plates.
