Today when I parked at work I had parked in a fair amount of mud. So I decided to move my truck after noticing the amount of mud I was in. It wasn't much of a problem moving, tires spun a little but nothing major. Afterwards I was looking at my left rear tire seeing how much mud I had on it considering I noticed a nice rut where I had parked. I noticed that my left rear leaf spring was not allighed. The top 2 leafs are together perfectly but the 3rd (bottom) leaf spring is about 15-20 degrees angled away from the top 2 (kinda like a narrow 'X'). I don't think that getting my truck out of the mud would have caused this but it could be a possibility. I'm thinking I'll have to lift the rear of my truck and hammer the leaf back into place.
But the point here is, anyone got any ideas on how to fix this and if my parking experiance might have caused this.
