My O/S rear spring had a broken leaf in it.
Well, after a failed attempt to take the O/S rear leaf spring front bolt off, I outsourced it. 2 days later my truck was returned with replaced, secondhand springs and new bushes.
I can only say, it really transformed the ride. A lot more solid and confidence inspiring. I now realise how compromised the ride was with that broken spring
