• Hardware contains all greaseable pin and shackles extending life of the components along with Poly bushes from Australia.

The Owens UK Manufactured springs:

Consist of 3+2, 5 leaves to form the spring pack mounted with front a metalastic bush at the front. The first leaf is 9mm, and the next two 8mm Leaves make up the ride springs under normal road use, then when loaded compress onto the 2x 14mm thick load springs enabling these springs to carry a constant load. In early models these lower springs were thinner, Toyota then increased the thickness to 14mm which is what makes these Owens springs equivalent to those later springs.
You will also notice that Owens springs, as does Toyota, manufacture their springs with intermediate spring end wear pads between each leaf, this prevents the individual leaves from wearing against each other over prolonged use, something that cheaper springs simply don't do.

To mount the springs we supply a pair or greaseable Pedders rear shackles, greaseable eyelet bolts, four Karsons "U" bolts and a set of performance bushes for the rear shackles, you now have yourself what we believe to be the best quality spring steel springs and mounting components on the market.

So this kit is based entirely on quality branded components that last and used World Wide. 

Kit Contains:

• 2x Heavy Duty 5 leaf rear leaf springs with wear pads between each leaf, manufactured by Owens in the UK and mounted with a front Metalastic bush.
• 1x Nolathane 8 piece performance Black Polyurethane rear shackle bush kit.
• 2x Karsons rear greaseable spring shackles,
• 2x Karsons spring pin greaseable retaining bolts (fit at front of spring to chassis).

Whilst improving the vehicle's looks and handling, RoughTrax suspension kits help to prevent body roll in bends. Ideal for towing, off road & on road. Manufactured in the UK. Nothing else is required to fit, simply bolt on & enjoy!

• The springs are painted in a "Transport" paint, as with all suspension components supplied, paint is not covered under warranty due to the very nature and position of the component.

Fitting Tip:
Tighten all spring retaining bolts and shackles when the vehicle is at normal ride height, this is done once the vehicle is assembly, lowered back to the ground with the weight back on the suspension and bounced a few times, this allows the bushes to settle in and vital for correct final assembly.

Rear Ride Heights:
The average measurements below, given by customers after fitting, are always taken from the base of the wheel rim vertically up to the wheel arch:
(This way the tyre condition or pressure does not affect the measurements)

These measurements should help provide you with an approx. idea of where the vehicle will sit but are only as a general guidance and can vary vehicle to vehicle:
798mm with 16" wheel Rims
810mm with 17" wheel Rims
