Default Need new axle tube covers(not oil seal)

Recently I picked up a Dana 30 out a wrecked XJ for 30 bucks. I was able to salvage the unit bearings and shafts. I installed new wheel joints in the axles and went to put them in my front end.

After putting them in I noticed that they did not have the plastic dust cover that blocks off the axle tube. I tried freeing them off my old shafts but broke them in the process. I have searched every where for them. Even NAPA wasn't able to help me.

I have found them from superior axle but they are pretty expensive.

Any help or part numbers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Well I'm going through all the trouble of replacing everything in the axle and don't need the new oil seals failing because of something so small.
