Default Where to buy splash shields?

Can someone please direct me to where I can buy replacement stone or splash shields for my 87 Cherokee for a Dana 30? I'm talking about the shield that goes inside the rotor. One was missing, the other one had to be cut to remove the hub. Anybody know where I can find them?

Thank you,

Ok, I'll answer my own question: Could not find online. Junkyard would be very tough as they often get ruined removing the bearing/hub assembly if you need to heat or chisel to get the bearing assembly off, which is usually the case.

However, they are still avail from the dealer for an 87, suprisingly, and was quoted $15 ea. While not completely necessary, they do help keep water from being splashed onto the rotors. I've seen vehicles w/o them and the inside edge of the rotor often rusts more quickly w/o the shields. We're talking WI here where there is road salt in the winter. Other areas I'm sure it's not a problem to leave off.
