I went to look at something else under the back of the truck and stumbled into this.
Note the gap between the leaf spring and that big girder looking perch. I might soak these things in deep creep and see if I can tighten them down, but I'm sure they're not going to take that well. I'm looking at the parts schematic on LMC and that piece doesn't appear and the u-bolts they show are much shorter.
Thoughts?
