I was under my truck and noticed that the leaf springs on both sides are not bound together anymore and that the leafs have shifted the same way on both packs. What will this change as far as driveability and can i just get them realigned or would new springs be in order? Thanks ahead of time for any input yall.

 

A spring shop can re band them for you.

 

Would a normal garage be able to do that or would I need to find a body shop?

 

A spring shop! They make u bolts ,leaf springs and stuff.
Look up one that does big rig work if you can't find an obvious light duty spring shop.
They will do it as well.

You can also buy the bolt on type and do it yourself.

 

We don't have spring shops around here so I guess ill be finding the bolt on types

 

Do you have semi trucks? Or does all your stuff come by horse and buggy to your stores?

Where there's big trucks there's spring shops. You just may not know about it.

 

Horse and buggy is the prefferred method. No but really the only one that was close got torched after a robbery and they haven't opened back up yet.

 

Oh I see you live in a small community.

Ok well ya there's a few different kinds you can do your self. Like the ones I showed you and then I have also built some like this and they worked great!

 

Yeh the nearest town with any kind of population is an hour away and that's not what I would consider even normal sized. Is that one you just showed flat bar, bolts, washers, and locking nuts?

 

No need for washers. But ya 1-1/2 flat bar at least 1/4" thickness an some grade 8 bolts, locking nuts or nuts and lock washers. Works great!
