Default 62, 3.8 Broken Leaf Spring

Upon dissemble of my rear suspension I discovered the smallest leaf on both sides broken. Is it possible to find individual spring sections? I don’t want to replace both assemblies for want of a single part. Any ideas would be very helpful.

take the assembly to a machine shop, they should be able to fabricate a new piece.

Dorman Corporation in the USA manufactures replacement leaf suspension parts for classic cars.

There must be a few spring shops near you in Maumee and Toledo. They should be able to copy from the remnants of one of your top leaves. They might be able to supply the rubber buttons that separate the springs. If not, it's not difficult to improvise some or adapt top hat buttons from another application.
