Do these leaf spring look right?

I was under my truck installing sliders and noticed that the leaf springs seem rather flat. I do have a topper, but with just that I would think the springs would still have something of an upward bend. These are going to be inverted if I put much more weight in the back.

Of course, the truck doesn't seem to be sagging or anything and is pretty much level with the topper. Still, these don't look right.

What say you? What do "proper" stock springs look like? I've been thinking of AAL to get back the factory rake.

 

Yes

 

Yup they suck and do the reverse C quickly.

 

My 19 has 400 miles on it. I will be changing to a full bilstein suspension next week. Ill take pics of my leafs now and after i change them to Medium duty dakers

 

Thanks. I never paid attention to what they looked like before the topper, but I always thought they were supposed to have a bit of an upward bend at the ends rather than be flat.

 

19 with 400 miles. Next weekend the 6112s/5160 will go on with the OME medium duty leafs.

 

Thanks. Those look pretty flat too. Guess it's by design. Good to know. Curious to know how the new ones ride.

 

its a light duty 1/2 ton truck with a light duty 1/2 ton suspension

 

Yes...flat is good. Reverse camber is not.

Flat springs endure flexing better and act as radius rods on the axle.
