Sorry for your misfortune, glad there was no damage or injuries

If you can "unload the weight" on the remaining good rear spring by lifting the frame a little, you should be all set to get close measurement. Also it probably wouldn't hurt to take the broken leaf with you.

If you haven't done springs yet, just remember to chock all grounded wheels, and support the broken end axle with a good adjustable jack to help setting the hardware. I haven't done it in quite a few years, but I remember using a come-along also to help position the axle for re-assembly.

Be SAFE, and Good Luck,
