I have known this truck since it was new and know it has not been wrecked. I will re-check the leaf springs this afternoon. The funny thing is this truck never pulled a trailer or really had any heavy loads until we purchased it. It was owned by a friend of mine who drove it back and forth to work and basically took out the trash every weekend. He allways buys new 3/4 ton pickups every 2-3 years. He says that he wants the heavy truck just in case he does decide to pull a trailer but he never does.
