Leaf Spring Replacement
Suspension & Steering — Cheyenne, WY
Leaf springs carry the load on working trucks, and years of hay, tools, campers and trailers take their toll: springs sag, leaves crack or break, and bushings, shackles and hangers wear out. The symptoms are a truck that sits low or crooked, bottoms out loaded, or clunks and squeaks from the rear.
TDC replaces leaf springs, shackles, hangers and U-bolts with quality parts — and for trucks that regularly carry weight, upgraded spring packs and helper springs restore the load capacity the truck was bought for. Air bag helper installation is also available for towing rigs.
What's Included
- Sagging, broken and fatigued spring replacement
- Shackle, hanger and bushing service
- Upgraded and helper spring packs for real loads
- New U-bolts, torqued properly — always
- Pairs with air bag helpers for towing
Diagnosing Steering & Suspension
- Road test
Wander, pull, clunk or shimmy — the complaint gets verified on the road first, sometimes with you riding along.
- Lift inspection
Every joint, bushing, spring and shock gets checked for play and wear with the suspension unloaded.
- Confirm the failed parts
Loose is measurable. You get told exactly which components failed and which are fine.
- Repair and re-test
Quality parts, proper torque, alignment accounted for, and a final drive to confirm it's right.
