Yeah I was aware of that when I cut the load leaf. However I'm not sure the load leaf is much to worry about like say a leaf pack. I would have tried the Toyota leaf but it was taken off years ago by the previous owner. If this load leaf breaks, the chevy springs are strong enough to be run on a 'yota without any type of anti-wrap leaf or I'll figure somthing else out.

As for your swap, what kind of shackle did you use, a typical 6" or double?
