I found some shackles that are a pretty close match to original.

I found some shackles that are very, very close to factory CUCV pieces. I bought one of the screw type, but realized it really didn't look right. After a little digging, I found some from MSC that are pretty close. I did have to grind about .050" out of the center to go over the 1.5" tubing, but they look really nice on the truck. They were a little pricey at $23 each, but I wasn't finding any full sets of originals any cheaper. They have a big ol honking "USA" forged into them which is cool too! Here's a pic of them, and pic comparing it to the screw type. I'll post the part number when I get them from work today.

Outstanding. Thanks for following up with my shackle question in the other thread. Looking forward to the numbers.
