    Noticed the leafs were positioned funny. Can you tell me if this is normal.

    What are your concerns? Take a small sledge and smack them back in place. Flexing the rear will make the leafs move a bit out of line, a few blows will fix them right up.

    Yep, sure is. Not really the packs, but more the design of the factory style bushings. I got tired of mine doing this and so I pounded those bad boys out and now run the poly bushings in all eyelets.

    Yeah, I just meant how the leafs sit to one side where the bushing/mount it is. Guess it's normal.
