OK here is an idea for the greased end for the "L" type spring bars. Taking this product as the idea.

4 inch long galvanized pipe nipple with ID that will fit your particular spring bar. Mine are about 1 1/4 inches in diameter so I am trying a 1 1/2 inch ID pipe nipple. A 3-5 inch screw type hose clamp. Clamp through the pipe to the arm of the trailer tongue at the point where you want the "L" to be. Pipe is in a vertical position so you just drop the "L" into it and support the chain end as needed off the tongue.

Home Depot about $10 for both sides (2 pipe nipples and 2 hose clamps).
