Introduction to pickup truck leaf springs

In the world of pickup, leaf springs are an important part of the vehicle’s suspension system. These springs play a vital role in providing a smooth and stable ride, especially when carrying heavy loads or towing a trailer. In this article, we’ll look at the different types of pickup truck leaf springs, as well as common models.
The primary function of leaf springs is to support the weight of the truck and its cargo and absorb shock and vibration from the road. When a pickup is loaded with heavy loads or towing a trailer, the leaf springs compress and flex to maintain proper ride height and stability. This helps distribute weight evenly over the axles and prevents the truck from sagging or swaying excessively. Therefore, different cargo capacities also require the use of different types of leaf springs.

Pickup leaf springs are divided into four different types according to different cargo capacities.
1.Comfort
2.Medium Duty
3.Heavy Duty
4.Extra Heavy Duty

Usually, in addition to the car model, we also select corresponding leaf springs based on different cargo capacities. As can be seen from the picture, the greater the number of leaves of the leaf spring, the greater the cargo carrying capacity. The leaf spring is divided into rear spring and helper spring. The rear spring of the pickup is on the top and the helper spring is on the bottom. When the car’s load-bearing capacity is not large, the rear spring bears the force. As the car’s load-carrying capacity increases, helper springs help withstand the force.
Proper maintenance of your pickup leaf springs is critical to ensuring safe and reliable operation. Over time, blades can wear, crack, or corrode, resulting in reduced load-carrying capacity and impaired handling. It is important to regularly inspect your leaf springs for signs of damage and lubricate suspension components as needed. In some cases, springs may need to be re-bent or replaced to ensure optimal performance. It is very important to choose the right leaf spring.
