Keep the rear axle clamped securely to the leaf spring with the SKP Leaf Spring Axle U-Bolt Plate (MPN SKY01310). It fits the 2000-2005 Ford Excursion [All], the 1999-2010 Ford F-250 Super Duty [All], and the 1999-2010 Ford F-350 Super Duty [All], serving as a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications.
This plate seats against the leaf spring and axle, and the U-bolts pass over the axle and through the plate to hold the spring and axle firmly together. A worn, bent, or corroded plate can allow the axle to shift, so replacing a damaged plate helps restore proper clamping of the spring pack.
Signs this plate may need replacing include a bent or cracked plate, heavy corrosion, or a spring that has shifted on the axle. Diagnose the cause before ordering, and inspect the U-bolts and related hardware at the same time.
Manufacturer part number: SKY01310.
