A couple of questions for you guys about the front of my 59 1/2 ton.
First, the upper shock mounts seem strange to me. Like the only thing holding the shock on is the inner bushing. See picture here:

Second question. On top of the front spring looks like a owner-modification. A round piece of about 1/2" welded to the spring and to the top of the spring mount. One side the weld has broken. Any idea of what or why this is on the truck? Nothing on the other side. If I cannot discern any reason for this, it is getting ground off. Here is a pic of it:
