71 GMC Leaf springs.

After removing the bed and washing the dirt off, I found the top spring on the drivers side was broken. What year springs will fit? Would it be any advantage to change to trailing arms and coils?( I have a chevy parts truck). I am on a tight budget and can't afford new springs.
