Default Leaf Springs...

Ok, so I just got done checking out the leaf springs on my Jeep. I am getting shocks, so was also checking to see how the springs were.
Wow. These things are beyond flat. The front of them (closest to the driver) is actually curved downwards on both sides.

Are there cheap leafs around? I did not realize how expensive these were going to be.
Does anyone have some used ones from a lift?
These stupid leafs are going to bust my budget big time if most all are $110+ a piece!
