Re: 2000 z71 leaf spring problem

I see you're from up north. My truck originally came from Indianapolis (bought it through Carmax) and when I changed my shocks a couple years ago, I noticed the bump stop looked funny, I touched it and it fell off. I then pushed on the other and it fell off too. Salt and water get down inside of the bumpstop and rusts out the metal. It seems odd to me that you could have dearched a spring, but I guess it's possible?
