No web site, but ph # 912-686-5812. Hope this takes a load off your springs! For that year the chevy people say just about everything is interchangeable.

Their on-line catalog is not much help but give them a call: 1-800-903-9019 If you are a stickler for authentic appearance, check Eaton Detroit Springs . They can provide leaf springs with original-style leaf-clips or band/rubber leaf-clips. For comparison, Chevy Duty sells the rear leaf springs for $210 (each) plus shipping. It looks like 1947.5-1955.5 1/2 ton Chevrolet trucks had the same rear leaf-springs.
