Suspension Spring ( Coil / Leaf ): Description and Operation
Leaf Spring
DESCRIPTION
The rear suspension system uses multi-leaf single stage springs and a solid drive axle. The forward end of the springs are mounted to the body rail
hangers through rubber bushings. The rearward end of the springs are attached to the body by the use of shackles. The spring and shackles use rubber
bushings. The bushing help to isolate road noise.
OPERATION
The springs control ride quality and maintain vehicle ride height. The shackles allow the springs to change their length as the vehicle moves over
various road conditions.
