Question M101CDN Leaf Springs

I recently purchased a M101CDN military trailer in very good shape. I've already had the entire trailer sandblasted and primed. It needs a bit of metalwork in only 3 places to repair some rust through, but otherwise, the metal is surprisingly solid.

Now, the leaf springs looked absolutely rusted, with large flakes of metal peeling. However, after the sandblasting and priming, they actually look pretty solid now. Having said that, I'm still thinking of replacing them.

Question: Does anyone know if the leaf springs from the M416 will fit the M101CDN? If not, does anyone know if any for sale for the CDN?

Also, do you think the spring shackles, and the shocks will also fit between the two?

FYI.. I did several forum searches, but couldn't navigate the process very well and couldn't find the specific info.

Many thanks,
David
