Dorman - OE Solutions Leaf Spring Assembly P/N:22-1653HD
Help your van carry its weight and payload as intended with this Dorman leaf spring, part number 22-1209HD, a rear suspension replacement for the 1996-2024 Chevrolet Express 3500 and 1996-2024 GMC Savana 3500. Leaf springs that work properly hold the load of the vehicle and are central to both suspension performance and passenger comfort.
A rear leaf spring may need replacing if the rear of the van sags or sits unevenly, bottoms out under load, or the spring is cracked, broken or heavily corroded. Leaf springs work as a left and right pair, so replacing both sides together is recommended to help keep ride height even. Dorman advises checking the product attributes to select the right leaf spring assembly for your application, and engine details are listed in the Buyer's Guide tab.
