Right ok, I'll get some more pics as I'll be down there again in a min so I'll get some more pics. What do you have to do to put the bushes on??

This guide here will show you most of it... you can do it without taking the entire spring off but its probably easier to take the whole thing off

Here's some pictures of the damaged springs, the hole that now has got a hole going all the way along the arch, the external arch after I removed it and some new springs what came with the truck.

That u bolt appears to be made from bent studding

Replace that and any others like it.

The front spring mounts have been chopped
And spaced away. Is the front axle bent?

Id revert back to stock setup up front as thats a
Pretty shonky spoa set up.

oh great :/ thought I would have just had to change thesprings and bolts :( oh well more of a challenge. sorry where can you see the axle is bent? and does this mean I need a new axle or how do I go about it? sorry Fairly new to all of this! oh and alos I do have new 'u' brackets that are brand new, I will have a look at them tomorrow and see what there like.

In your second from last piccy the axle casings looks very
Bowed.

Have the front wheels got a lean to them?

Oh yeah I see what you mean. And yeah they do but my mate seemed to think it was just a king pin bearings? what's the worse case scenario?
