Has anyone actually switched their = springs left for right, and did the van level out ?

I know this = thread has been through a couple of times, but I probably wasn't paying = attention at the time :-

This has more to do with the spring fatigue caused by the extra weight on = the port side of the van.  Over time (at least 9 years by now) = the weight of the camper equipment (not to mention all the stuff = stuffed in there most of the time) simply compresses the springs to a point = where they fatigue and cannot return to the original height/length.
