I don’t know of any aftermarket replacement for the original ones with flat lug nuts, used at least through 53 but I haven’t looked in parts book to know full year range.

Dexter trailer axles may offer clamp plates for 5/8 studs. We just got a trailer and wheel torque specs in the manual are different for different nut types and clamp plates are shown as an option, not what we have though.
