They basically keep the springs in a straight line. Without them they can move a little from side to side. I know guys that don't run them because the spring works better off road(or so they say). It can only rotate so far any way.

im one of those guys that doesnt run any spring clamps. as jeepfreak said,the leaves can only move so far,and that doesnt hurt anything.
