Availability of Rear Hanger for 2 inch Wide Slipper Spring and Complete Hanger Kit

Question

Question:

I am having a hard time finding the correct rear spring hanger. I have 2 9,000# dexter axles. The springs a 2 wide. The equalizer is 24 total length. I need the rear slipper spring mount. For right now Im only changing that mount, but in the near future I will change them all. So if you have a number for the rear only and a kit with them all, that would be greatly appreciated, Thanks,
