Firmer rear springs

Details & Technology
Installation of dual leaf springs which feature a steeper spring characteristic curve than
standard springs. They are stiffer.
Benefits & Arguments
Greater roll resistance under heavy rear loads
In conjunction with the stabilizing package, the firmer rear springs provide greater roll
resistance but without compromising ride comfort. With a load of 2250 kg [5000lbs] on
the rear axle, spring travel is reduced by approx. 21 mm. There is no change in the
unladen height of the vehicle.
Remarks
Can negatively affect the ride comfort (bouncy) if the vehicle does not have a very heavy
upfit or constantly operating near max GVWR..
This Code cannot be ordered individually.
