I’m not sure I want 3000 pounds of car and a 1000 pound trailer held up by $23 springs!
So this is interesting, they offer a less expensive 20" 1850 spring

The difference between what you found and what I did is the one you posted is Marine coated.

In the description "Eye to Eye Measurement 20 inches (Free Length Measurement)
Does your spring measure slightly more than 20 inches, lets say 20 3/4 or so? You may have your trailer loaded, or the spring may be old and flattened out. It is not uncommon for leaf springs to measure longer than what the stock size is listed."
