Do you have the part number for tremor leafs? how much did they lift?
I bought them from a member on the site who installed a full OME setup on his Tremor.

They didn't lift my truck at all. It measured the same before and after.

I would give the warranty route a shot, although with aftermarket shocks on, I can see the skepticism you might run into at the dealer when you say you "did nuffin'" to cause the bent spring... :)

I've been on northern alberta and BC logging roads and gas patch pathways and have never had or seen anyone bend leaf springs
If the Alaska highway is that bad, you would have know which specific pot hole you hit...a "guess it was the drive" just means that this damage was done elsewhere, or you have some defective material with little to no spring action.
well to be fair the bed was full of things as i was moving, and frost heaves are huge on the highways. BC roads are kept up a lot better than Yukon, and rural Alaska.

stage 3 is cool, but their shipping is more than the Leafs itself. just off principle I can't do it, and it's not their fault.
Shipping has always been free for me... Why are you getting charged for shipping? The site says free shipping. If you're seeing a charge, I would absolutely reach out to Frank to see why. They offer a forum discount too.

Our springs are TERRIBLE! I've got a thread about them somewhere bending and even snapping.

Ford dealer in Fairbanks says they are broken and covered under warranty, but they don't have time to work on the truck until end of September. A big fuck off from ford. Also, isn't just an option to give me the part for me or another shop to install.

idk how that's even allowed, my spring could be completely snapped and not drivable and id have nothing for months. I even asked if i could just get the parts under warranty and replace myself or the cash to order aftermarket. Big nope they have to do it all in shop when they have time.
