The driver side front, front and rear spring hangers have some pieces on and near them I'm not sure of. The front looks factory stamp welded its a flat strap that runs the width of the hanger. The rear may be home garage made, but it bolts behind the spring to maybe serve as a stop ?? The spring has never touched it though ?? Here's the pics. I do know the rivet replaced with the bolt at the front is not factory. Its in the pics. You can tell by a little wear that The hanger got a little loose on the frame and the put a couple bolts in the rivet holes... Thanks again
those pieces are factory,dont know why there is a bolt in yours...I can't remember why they put those extra pieces on there,but mine has them as well, hopefully someone will get in on this and let us know...
