Overview

Old Man Emu Dakar Leaf Springs

Old Man Emu Dakar leaf springs are offered in numerous spring options to suit a multitude of applications, allowing you to set your vehicle up for recreational or commercial purposes. Feature packed, a set of Emu Dakar leaf springs matched to a set of Old Man Emu shocks will deliver a vastly improved ride, handling and load carrying capability to your vehicle.

Emu Dakar leaf springs typically feature:

* Draw-tapered and diamond-cut leaves: Ensure the load is progressively distributed over a larger surface area, reducing the high stresses that develop at leaf ends. This provides increased ride quality and protection against leaf breakage, significantly increasing the spring life
* Bolt clamps and liners: The leaf clamps are bolted to allow installation of anti-squeak nylon liners
* Fully scragged and load-tested: Scragging ensures the spring takes a permanent "set" which reduces the risk of sagging. Load testing ensures the spring meets the required specification.
* Graphite coating: To further reduce the friction between the spring leaves and friction pads.
* Military wrap: Designed to provide added safety (not available on all applications)
* Anti-friction pads: Re-greaseable nylon interleaf liners reduce friction at the leaf tips where the load is the greatest
* Flat axle seat area: Allows a positive, safe axle mount reducing spring stress and increasing spring life
* Shot peening: The tension side of all leaves is shot peened to reduce spring stress, process can also double the life of a spring
* Two-stage leaf pack: Featured on most rear springs for optimum comfort. When unladen, the vehicle is largely riding on the primary stage, with the secondary stage providing additional support when a heavy load is added
