Hi I' bought a 2013, I'm going to do some preventative maintenance, like the tranni flush I've bought a Dorman pan with drain plug, coolant flush upper lower hoses thermostat, plugs and wires, differential fluid, engine oil and major rust proofing painting it black all this spring so I can go on long trips this summer!!
Can you tell me about the leaf springs on these vans this is my first car with leaf springs,

Leaf spring
I think mine are a bit sprung, out of line
The bottom leaf is not inline with the rest sticks outward on one end and inward on the other.
Do leaf springs fail commonly? I bought the van used has 167,000km, was a work van,
Also if I do buy new ones can I get 4/1 ?
I think I have a 3main 1 helper
Rick auto has 4/1 5)1.. etc
And when I drive the van it does have a jingle sound going over bumps empty and I think it could be the suspension.
