Put my car up on the lift today and found a broken leaf spring. I looked at most of the usual sources and they seem to exclude the 74 with the oval front eyelet. What should I use for new springs?

I just thought about something else- the rubber pieces that go above and below the springs- the pieces that are sandwiched in. Where can I get new ones of these?
