Leaf springs that work properly hold the weight and payload of a vehicle or trailer, and they are essential to suspension performance and passenger comfort. This rear leaf spring assembly from Dorman - OE Solutions is intended to replace a spring damaged by overloading, a collision, cracking or corrosion, or one that is simply due for replacement.
Leaf springs work as a left and right pair, so replacing both rear springs together is recommended for even support.
