Alright,
I started to dig into replacing my rear springs today as my new set arrived yesterday afternoon. I just want to check to make sure a couple of things are right (or wrong).
1) First, is the spring plate supposed to have a curve to it? Like this? I've looked in the catalogs, but I can't tell by the pictures:

2) Are the ubolts supposed to be bent like this?

I'm guess they aren't, but because they are bent, I'm not having much luck removing the u-bolt nuts. I've given up and just going to cut since I have new u-bolts.
Thanks.
