Hey guys, i bought my 1992 5l rwd f150 about 6 months ago, and recently noticed that one side of my back end has sagged. Turns out one of the leafs is broken. My question is if i can make up for this with a leaf spring helper such as this one : https://www.jcwhitney.com/leaf-sprin...DetailTabPanel
What do you guys think? would it help or is it a piece of junk? I do not tow anything heavy, other than the occasional buddy out of a ditch

why just replace the broken leaf?

 

My neighbor is ordering from the site so the shipping wont be much. and price is always an issue. I dont expect this to be the solution, I'm expecting to need to change the leaf but was wondering if this was an easier solution.

 

nope LOL save the 30 bucks for the spring you need in the long run you would be spending 30 extra bucks.

 

Thanks for the advice!

 

Hi Mr Smith
Take an advice from a "tightfisted, with short arms and deep pockets born" dutchman..
I drove a 1962 Landrover for 21 years.... Once I had two broken leafs on one side, rear.. As a real efficient Dutchman (that's were we famous for) I bought one set at the scrapyard.. My truck was sagging!! The lessons I've learned were, If I have to buy other rear springs, I do that in a pair, from one truck; the idea is, that the left and right must have had a life in similar conditions.

best regards Ton
