Bent Rear Leaf Springs?!? 03 1500
The rear of my 03 1500 seems to be setting lower than it has in the past. I was looking under it today and noticed the rear leafs look like they are bent. The thick overload(?) spring on the bottom is actually bowing a little in the wrong direction. The rest of the leafs are straight where the ubolts clamp on then bow a bit DOWN before arching back up. I have never really looked that close at them before... so it could be normal. Can amyone confirm this?
I DO tow my jeep sometimes and *may* have overloaded it once...

the over load spring should be like that. Its probably fine. I have loaded a whole pallet of marble in my truck. Around 2,000 lbs in the bed for like 4 miles. I have airbag helper springs and those were totally collapsed with 80psi. My springs arn't bent. Plus I haven't really heard of any instances were a leaf bends.
