rubber shear springs

Make sure to look into the metal tower at the top of the shear springs using a good flashlight. I found one totally separated at the top. I failed to check close enough...only seeing the bottom start to fail. I was shocked to see how bad it was on top when I pulled it out. From now on, I will be under the trailer more often and looking up in the center tower very closely. I was only a few miles from total failure...
