SKP Leaf Spring Axle U-Bolt Plate P/N:SKY01323
Lock your leaf-spring pack tight to the axle with the SKP Leaf Spring Axle U-Bolt Plate SKY01309. It installs as a direct-fit replacement for the 1999-2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty, 1999-2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty, and 2000-2005 Ford Excursion (All engines), taking the place of a worn, bent, or corroded original plate.
This plate seats against the axle so the U-bolts pass through it and clamp the leaf spring securely in place, spreading the clamping load across the spring and helping hold the axle located under the vehicle.
Signs this part may need replacing: a bent or cracked plate, heavy corrosion, or a leaf spring/axle that has shifted or feels loose. If a failed U-bolt plate is the cause, this replaces it. The catalog lists one per application; sold individually.
Manufacturer part number SKY01309.
