So on the new runner I have, I noticed the rear over load springs are crooked and one of the middle springs on both sides up front that are a tad crooked. Would it be an issue to run my truck like this? Or should I loosen up the u-bolts and recenter them all? The springs are Ford 56" in the rear and RUF.
 
Although spring clamps are a good idea for holding the pack together when drooping out, ALOT of the issue is the U-bolt holes in the top plates are too wide. If you redo the top plates with holes drilled just wide enough for the springs, you will not need spring clamps to hold them centered. Just went thru this on a friend's rig...Couldn't figure out for the longest time why they did this.
