    They look like CJ-7 springs to me, but I think $75 is too much.

    Looks to me like the centering pins were replaced with bolts..and you are seeing the bottom part of the bolt sticking out. If you look close you can see the heads on the top of the spring packs.

    i guess they do look like bolts. I hadn't noticed that. Would that effect the springs in any way? Would I still be able to use them?

    IIRC the spring plates have holes in the center where the bolts can stick out. There are special bolts for this use that have the centering pin head shape. I had to buy some for my trailer after cutting the old centering pins out to disassemble the spring pack for painting.
