Local source for leaf springs? (79 Trans Am)

August 12th, 2013, 06:56 AM

Going to finally have a free weekend coming up, so I want to replace the broken leaf spring on my 79. I've found a nice set at Ames performance for $160, but the shipping is of course KILLER. Anybody know of a good local source for a part like this? Of course, all of the auto parts stores just shake their heads for something like this. Lol. I could take it to a suspension shop and have it done, but I prefer to do it myself. Any ideas?
