Wow bent leaf spring now I've broke one before best advice I can give you is replace both or will lean, get ones for a suburban they are heavier and will help out on stability also

Where is it bent? Can you take a pic? I wouldn't loosen anything until you get the replacement(s), you will never get it back together.

Where in CA are you? I've got some leafs off an 05 silverado you can have. I don't know if they will fit your application or not.
