Does anyone know of a place around Lafayette/Abbeville where I can purchase a pair of leaf springs for a 1500 lb Easy Loader Boat Trailer. I broke one in half and it caused the fender to blow out a tire, due to our great roadways and saltwater. Tried Tractor Supply but they only carry the spring with both ends closed while I have one end closed and one end bent in a U shape. Thanks Ray
