I know if yall tell me what it is and I didnt think of it I know I will feel stupid, but what is this? Vapor/charcoal canister? Under my bed above rear axle. By the spare. 1997 F-150.

(Yes I know pics are sideways)

Also noticed my first leaf on both springs looks kinda askew. Normal? How to fix?

Yessir. That's part of your evaporative emissions system. And the leaf looks normal to me. Wouldn't worry myself with it.

Ok im just used to older trucks with them under the hood, and its off half-one inch to the side. No need to worry?

I wouldn't. They'll shift a little as the factory clamps wear out. If it moves more replace or add another clamp.
