Dorman - OE Solutions Leaf Spring Hanger P/N:722-069
Keep the rear leaf spring anchored to the frame with this Dorman leaf spring hanger / bracket, part number 722-224, a direct-fit replacement for the 1994-1996 Dodge Ram 1500, 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 2500 and 1994-2002 Dodge Ram 3500. It serves the rear spring at the forward position, where it helps hold the front end of the leaf spring to the chassis.
Dorman lists this part as a leaf spring bracket kit, so you may see it under either name, hanger or bracket. It is built to install and perform like the original part on the listed trucks.
Signs the hanger may need replacing include visible cracks, heavy rust or bending at the mount, clunking from the rear spring area, or a spring that has shifted out of alignment. Inspect the entire spring mount before ordering, since worn shackles, bushings or the spring itself can cause similar symptoms.
