Fixed squeak, but is this a bigger problem? #721800 06/11/10 07:05 PM 06/11/10 07:05 PM

Here's a link to previous thread. https://board.moparts.org/ubbthreads/show...rue#Post6013797 But it looks like my front leaf spring hangers have the eyelet hole drilled 1/8" off. I had to grind 33% of the hanger thickness to eliminate the intereference. Is this a failure waiting to happen? 6032229-hangerinterference(a).jpg (98 downloads)
