Features to know about

Gain Ground Clearance and Confidence: 1.97" of Lift for More Room to Move

When trails or job sites get rough, having extra clearance makes all the difference. These Old Man Emu medium-duty rear leaf springs add an estimated 1.97" of lift to boost ground clearance and let you roll over more obstacles without dragging your rear end. That added lift helps balance out your load and improves approach angles when carrying gear, tools, or camping setups.

Handle Moderate Loads with Ease: Firmer Springs for Stability and Comfort

Factory springs can sag or feel loose once you start adding real weight. These medium-duty springs have a spring rate of 217/388 lbs/in, giving them a firmer, more controlled feel under moderate loads. They keep your setup level and responsive whether you’re hauling supplies or heading out with a rooftop tent. The result is steady handling and a comfortable ride that still absorbs bumps without bottoming out.

Keep It Quiet on Every Mile: Greasable Nylon Leaf Liners

No one wants a noisy suspension clunking through every bump. These springs use greasable nylon leaf liners between each leaf to cut down friction and noise so your ride stays quiet and smooth. You’ll feel the suspension working, not hear it squeaking.

Built to Last Through Hard Use: Shot-Peened Steel Construction

Durability counts when you depend on your rig every day. Each spring is made from shot-peened steel that’s engineered for long-term strength and fatigue resistance. With a free arch of 9.06", stack height of 1.89", and four primary leaves plus two helpers, these springs are built to handle repeated flexing without losing performance over time.

Simple Replacement Fit: Works with Existing Shackles and Bolts

Installing these rear springs doesn’t require re-engineering your suspension setup. They’re designed to work with your existing shackles and bolts—just inspect hardware for wear before mounting. Replacement bushings (OMESB6) and trim packer (TP04) are available separately to fine-tune your fit if needed.
