Description

Adjustable Suspension Solution. The Detroit Speed Adjustable Leaf Spring Pads provide a versatile method for installing a new rear end housing or adjusting leaf spring placement to fit larger rear tires. They enable precise positioning by clamping securely to the axle tube, ensuring proper pinion angle and suspension alignment. This adjustability is crucial for performance and handling when modifying rear suspension setups.

Durable Steel Construction. Constructed from robust steel, these leaf spring pads are designed for strength and longevity. They clamp firmly around any 3" axle tube and are compatible with 2-1/2" wide leaf springs, providing reliable support for heavy-duty applications. For permanent installation, welding the pads is recommended to maintain optimal alignment and stability.

Installation Process. Installation is straightforward, requiring positioning and clamping without drilling. Welding is advised to secure the fit permanently. Moderate mechanical skill is necessary to correctly set the pinion angle and leaf spring placement before final attachment.

Application. Designed as a universal fit, these pads accommodate a wide range of rear axle setups, with potential adjustments needed to suit specific configurations.
