Dorman - OE Solutions Leaf Spring Assembly P/N:43-516
Help your pickup carry its weight and payload the way it should with the Dorman leaf spring 43-701HD, a rear-position replacement for the 1980-1996 Ford F-250, 1997 Ford F-250 HD and 1980-1997 Ford F-350. Leaf springs that work properly hold up the weight and payload of the vehicle, and they are essential to both suspension performance and passenger comfort. If a cracked, sagging or corroded spring is making your rear end sit low or bottom out under load, this unit replaces it.
Whether you need a 1980-1997 Ford F-350 leaf spring or one for a 1980-1996 Ford F-250, check the product attributes and the "Vehicles it fits" section to match the right spring to your truck. Rear leaf springs work as a left and right pair, so we recommend replacing both sides together.

What does a leaf spring assembly do?
It holds the weight and payload of the truck. It is essential to suspension performance and passenger comfort.
What are signs a rear leaf spring may need replacing?
Signs include a rear end that sags or sits unevenly, cracked or broken leaves, heavy corrosion, and bottoming out under load. Diagnose the cause before replacing the spring.
Is this a direct replacement for the original spring?
Yes. Dorman designs it to fit and work like the original leaf spring on the listed Ford trucks.
Should I replace both rear leaf springs at the same time?
Yes, that is recommended. Rear leaf springs work as a left and right pair, and replacing both together helps keep ride height and load support even from side to side.
