$160 isn't that bad of a price. Samco can make them, but it'll probably cost more than $160 :dunno:

Here are some that I made for my Bronco http://www.samcofabrication.com/gallery/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=142

I could not build any for cheaper, that is not a bad price for 4130 shackles. Those take some time to fab and weld. Camburg makes some nice stuff. I can order those shackles for $149 + ship and tax. (mig weld)

And no, I dont know dimentions of the Camburg ones, just that they say to cut the bed out, so they must be pretty long!

They dont have to be stainless. I think mild steel would be good enough since there a tension shackle anyways..

Just plate your stock ones. I plated mine with 1/4" and have never had a problem since.
