I bought a new set of eaton 5 leaf springs, and used the primary spring from the new ones, and the original leafs for the other four. I cleaned them with a wire wheel, and had them re-assembled at a spring shop. Then I painted them with an OER rattle can product that was formulated for heat treated parts. Came out great, looking pretty close to the color of heat treated steel, and still look good 10 years later.
