Default WTF! My driver's side spring is broken. The tab that catches on the bottom..

spacer is gone. I guess it's the very end of the spring. The spacer was dangling so I removed it. I have the spring right now resting on the A arm, if that's what it's called.
Good excuse to get lowering springs and get that out of the way. Is this common? I recall some posts on this.....
B&G it is!

Broken spring is common, but there is no A arm.

Default Hmmm...this sounds vaguely familiar...

Interesting, as I believe mine broke around this time last year. Talk about planned obsolescence, this is right on queue it would seem.
