I guess "should I dirve it" is not the right question. You are right Alwaysworking, I "shouldn't" drive it, but what are the chances I make it home alive?

 

If the main leaf works out from under the U-bolts the truck will make an abrupt right turn under braking. Could be exciting. Best solution would be a replacement but if you must drive it, run a rachet strap around the axle tube and through the spring mount, cinch it up and try to take it easy on the brakes.

 

Well, I made it home in one piece, and got a new leaf pack. I also sent the old one back to skyjacker. Today (three weeks after sending the spring back) skyjacker sent me a full refund! Although I am still dissappointed that the first spring broke, I am glad to see they stand behind there products.
