I've had 2 leaf springs fail, one on I 5 northbound over the grapevine, and another westbound I 80 through Nevada.
Turns out that rig had 6,000 pound axles with 2,500 pound springs. Replaced all 4 leaf springs with 3,000 pound springs and haven't had any issues since. BTW, weak springs caused me to wear out the inside tread of 4 new tires in 6,000 miles.
