    Are you running a Fastboys type left side leaf? Or is it just a regular leaf spring?

          If the left side leaf looks beefier in the front then it is a Fastboys type leaf. I say type because to be an exact Fastboys leaf it would also have a huge arc as well and would most likely be in the top mounting hole in front with a really tall lowering block on that side and longer shackles as well. There would also be a birdcage on the right side to allow the axle housing to rotate freely on that side.

          With a Fastboys type leaf on the left, the setup depends on whether or not there's a birdcage on the right as there would be a big difference in what you want to see when scaling.
