Question leaf spring went flat

ok as im working on the brakes i noticed that after i put my 3" body lift on that the springs went flat and are no longer like a "U" shape. what can i do to fix this? i was thinking that i could just get bigger springs like off an f150 or some thing but i dont know. all i do know is that i cant have that much of a load in the bed or i take a risk of snaping one

I would personally grab them off of any 90s-2000 expo.

We sell em at the shop brand new packs run around $200 per spring.
