....for my 47 3600. I THOUGHT I had one lined up, but it was too wide, mine are 2". I actually only need the leaf with the loops on it.

Keep a lookout for 3800 leaf springs. They are 2" wide as well

Stock 3600 Springs should be reasonably easy to find.

There are several Missouri area guys on The FB https://www.facebook.com/groups/47.54ADTechSwap/

page that have parts for sale on a regular basis and a couple seem to make a living at it. Watch out for the Texas and southwestern guys who think their stuff is gold plated though. Truthfully someone should have a pair within the "honey ya want to go for a ride" range for a reasonable price.
