Not sure on the size, I doubt you will find new ones on the shelf. Most have got a used set or send yours off to get re arched.

Calvert racing has a split mono . The problem is they are 200# spring rate only . They don't make any other rates . Other than that stock is the only other option .

Re arch.. A good shop will make them like new again.... They are taken apart heated then re assembled. New center bolt, new bushings. At least the many I have had done.

I am actually have a set of springs re done now for a 1947 Caddy. Total cost with new bushings is $275. That should give you some kind of idea on cost.
