To determine the correct length of leaf spring on a 7,000 lb axle, all you have to do is measure from the center of one spring eye to the center of the other spring eye. Keep in mind your current springs will have elongated a bit over time so you can go with slightly shorter ones if the exact distance isn't available.

We have one double-eye spring for a 7k axle, and it measures 24-7/8" from center to center of its spring eyes:
