Default Pair of leaf springs suitable for a living van

Gents

I'm after a pair of matched leaf springs suitable for a living van project.

The pair of fronts I have (off a Bomford & Evershed van) have 5No 1/4 inch thick, 2 1/2 wide leaves. They are about 35inches long. So I'm looking for something similar for the rear. Possibly with some extra leaves as there will be aq cole hole over the rear axle.

The van will be 14foot long, 7 foot wide.

I am open to see what is out there, at the minuite I am drawing up the chassis so I more or less have a blank canvas.

WHY?. ex Farm cart, lorry, military trailer, railway dray etc whatever, the only stipulation is that they must be useable.

I have a tame springmaker who will make me whatever I want, but thats more expensive than Plan A which is a pair off 11 leaf Landrover front springs which I can buy off the shelf new for a very sensible amount.

This advert is to see if other options exist.

P.M in the first instance, I am on the Shropshire/Staffs border.
