I have an 88' 2wd with leaf springs in the rear. Passenger side leaf is sagging pretty bad. The van is very high mileage and I'm pretty sure has the original springs. I want to replace both sides but I am having a really hard time finding replacements. I've heard that the 84-88 2wd pickups have very similar leafs and I have found a few places that sell them. Just wondering if anyone has experience putting in new leafs springs and has any idea where to find replacements.

Leaf springs are relatively easily manufactured. Try Googling leaf springs in your location and you'll probably find a local manufacturer that can make them to match the proper specifications. You could also add custom modifications like a softer or harder spring rate. Typically pricing a surprisingly reasonable. They may even be able to re-arc yours if they're in reasonable condition otherwise.
