My leaf spring do not all line up correctly. The bottom one on the left is toed in about a 1/4" or so. I don't think that this is a problem, but I don't want to find out the hard way! Here's a pic, should I worry about it?

 

I wouldn't worry about it unless it gets worse. They do make clamps to keep them in place at your local auto parts store.

 

Take a hammer and smack it back over!

They are captured between the u-bolts, the spring retainer clips and the spring pack alignment bolt.

It doesn't hurt anything, unless it just looks bad to you.

 

Thats not off by much, so it shouldnt affect anything. But you should be able to hit it with a hammer to straighten it out.


Yea, I have these on my truck because the ones pro comp gave me with my add a leaf sucked, and actually popped off. The new ones are real nice and tight (they bolt on instead of the old clamp/clip style). Got them at the local auto zone. But youll be ok without them.

 

Woops, sorry Colorado Osprey, didnt mean to duplicate your response. I took to long to post mine.

 

I wouldn't budge when I was screwing with it (I was replacing the brake pads at the time). But I have since bought a 4lb persuader, might come in handy.

 

Don't be timid. a 4# with a good swing will do. If you want, jack up the truck by the frame so the vehicle weight is not on the spring before smacking it. It will move easier.

 

What's the fun in that?
