sounds like the center pins are going bad. and also your ubolts are not tight . crank them down . at work i use my ir thundergun till thay basicly stop. but i dont just sit there till thay do ether. never had your problem.
 
I've had that problem with my SUPERLIFT springs since they were new. take a piece of thin small strap steel bend it around one end of the spring pack so that the ends just touch . then tack-weld it. to keep it from moving around put some tape on it. you don't want to weld to the springs,, thats a no no.
 
yup

well thats what i was thinking i would have to do.. damn it! its just so dang frustrating one of my rear leaf springs shifted in the pack and busted my caliper braided brake line.... do you use the tape to keep them from sliding front to back?
