On acceleration this week, I heard a loud snapping pop from the rear passenger side. Investigation shows broken leaf spring. Quite the sag on that side! Anyway, I can source a spring from my friend in Vermont. But question first.<br>
<br>
When replacing leaf springs on one side with used, is there a reason why you should do it on both sides? I can't think of one.<br>
<br>
Thanks, everyone,<br>
