Rusty's 1.5" SOA 5-leaf spring is intended for spring-over applications. By using a reverse eye design the spring has a more natural arch, which provides a better ride and longer life. Axle wrap is minimized with a careful choice of leaf thickness and spring rate, yet the spring pack still allows great articulation.
This spring pack can be used front or rear in a spring-over application (yields 7" of lift), or in the stock configuration (yields a 1.5" lift). This is absolutely the best spring we have ever used for a spring-over! Sold individually. Bushings Included.
All of Rusty's leaf springs are built with tapered leafs and anti-friction pads to reduce inter-leaf friction and provide a smooth, linear rate as the spring compresses. We also use bolt-style retaining clips that further reduce friction and maximize suspension travel. The individual leafs are shot-peened to reduce spring stress as well as improve memory (reduce sagging), and each spring is load-tested to ensure they meet Rusty's stringent specifications. We also use only the best rubber or polyurethane bushings available. We vary the bushing material used based on the individual application's needs; some vehicles require the extra rigidity and support of poly bushings for optimum handling, while others benefit from softer rubber bushings for quiet operation and longevity. Rest assured, we put over 30 years of experience and computer-aided modeling into every spring we offer!
Note that pricing is per spring. Bushings are included.
