Where are you bending the spring? I've seen a lot of people screw up their leaf springs by bending them at the wrong place. Most people just try bending the prongs while holding the base. Doing this will cause the prong to bend at the base of the weakest point - in this case, it bends at base of each prong - where it splits off from the body. This is the WRONG bend point, and creates all kinds of wack issues. The proper spot to bend it, is where it's bent from the factory. All of the prongs should run straight from the body. Use a needle nose plier to bend it where the factory has bent it.

Well I'm not "bending" it so much. I'm actually "rolling" the middle spring on a recoil rod or something of that nature to create a slight curve of the spring. I figured it will offshoot the "bend" from the base to the body....
