Have a Coromal Element 552 , trying to source new leaf springs , can anyone help ? I have been wearing inside edge of both tyres and have been told that the springs have sagged and is affecting the wheel alignment.

You can try Melbourne Trailers, who do Coromal spares. If that fails let me know as I can get new ones.
From memory, they're 7 leaf, but easy to remove leaves to suit.
Otherwise you could get existing springs reset by any spring maker.
Consider having shock absorbers fitted too. Cheers
P.S Where do you live?

With this suspension is it critical to have van level when towing to ensure wheels wear evenly?
Because the independent suspension is NOT load-sharing it is important that the van be as close as possible to level and that tyre pressures are correct for their size. Run front axle of van about 3-4 psi lower than rear axle to minimise 'scuff' when turning. The suspension system you have is almost 50 years old, and is the only type where you will not get axle-steer, which isa major cause of vans going RSup. Cheers
