Default Capri leaf spring question...

Hi lads, Cut a long story short, Ive part ex my transit tipper and some cash for a 2l pinto capri which needs a few things sorted. I've been given a pair of polybushed rear leaf springs to go on it. There one single unit. Does this one leafspring go on by its self, or do I have to take the other bits of the old leafspring and attach it to the new one. It may be a silly question but I've never had a car with leaf springs,only the tipper which I didnt touch.Thanks for any help.

They go on as a single unit mate but be warned when taking off the rear hangers they have a habit of snapping and the front bolt can seaze into the bush which is a right bitch to get out. Have fun
