Light weight Leaf spring?

Broke my tail spring on the plane, not because it was not heavy enough but because I had heated it and bent the end and didn't treat it right.

Anyhow this thing weighs 4 lbs and want something lighter on the tail, I have seen jeeps use fiber glass leaf springs, so what else is out there? Alum, carbon fiber, titanium etc?

It's an 1 1/2 wide and 18" long
