Blue Body spacers degrading and crumbling

Ok, my blue body spacers have degraded and apparently have been crushed by the weight of the body of the truck.

A couple of questions:

1. Does anyone have these body spacers back in stock? They were a very hard to find item a year ago. Are the blue spacers the best or are the purple or black spacers the best?

2. What is the thickness of these OEM spacers?

3. Any recommendation on an after market spacer for a heavy ;) 1167? On my other truck I used the predator spacers but as this truck is now just under 12k lbs I'm not sure if after market spacers can support the weight.

Replaced my six crumbled blue ones with these three years ago. Still as new.53F25AA6-4953-4E19-9890-4AB033661398.png

How did that work out? there are three different sets of part numbers for the mounts, at least on the earlier trucks., two sets for the later trucks and only one set of numbers for ser# 300K and up, I can't remember what the differences were but I do remember they had obvious differences on my M998
