New ones just like came from the factory. also new bolts,bushings and check a attaching points to make sure they aren't cracked or rusted enough to weaken them.

I will be taking mine off my 59 and taking them down to my Spring maker and he will build me new ones with all new bolts and greasable bushings and any other hardware like shackles and it will cost me around $130 per side. This is one of the best things you can do for the safety end of your trailer. That and new "Trailer" tires and bearings.
There are brand new springs available but I have found that the ones they sell off the rack aren't going to fit the perches of the old trailers.
