I broke number 3 spring on the driver's side.
I was trying to twist it up as best I could with the stock set-up, and then I heard a louder clang then normal. When i got back to camp I noticed it was broken in two places, one right be the rear u-bolt and then again about 6 inches up the arch, all on the same leaf.
Funny thing is it never sat lower on that side. Also I ran with a broken leaf for about a year and a half before I split the pack and swapped in a good leaf.
