[QUOTE="CATDiezel, post: 1379585, member: 4387"] Leaf Springs are a funny item. I've seen so many broke ones in my life I can't fathom how many are broke and un-noticed. Leaf Springs have a unique temper to them and when being made if things aren't just perfect they will break at some point. The truck could have been severly overloaded for a short trip and hit a harsh pothole. Many things it could be. My first instinct is a fluke deal or it was never right since inception. Other than that the spring would need a failure analysis to determine what type of break it is. Fatigue. Stress. Metal failure. My first thought would be stress but in conjunction with metal weakness as in bad bonding of molecules from a heat cycle when the leaf was formed inor it's mothers belly. [/QUOTE]
