Default bad leaf springs?

for some reason the leaf springs are bowed in the wrong direction and i dont see why they are. theres no weight being put on the back at all. everything is still together and nothings missing. any ideas?

They are junk and you need new ones. They are a pain to get out. Use your search icon and find tips on how to remove them. Do not just put in add a leafs these will only fix your problem for 4-6 months tops. You will wast your time and money. And if they are as bad as you say prob only fix it for a month.
