Spring Bushings

DANGER

Before working on or inspecting a

vehicle, set the parking brakes, place the

transmission in neutral and block the

wheels. Failure to do so can result in

unexpected vehicle movement and can

cause serious personal injury or death.

When lubricating the springs, lift the axle

off of the floor, suspend the frame with

axle stands and lower the axle. The spring

bushings are now in the position where

grease can be added to the contact surfaces.

If the spring bushings are greased without

taking the load off, high wear and lower

lifetime will occur because of no grease

reaching the contact surfaces.

If the vehicle is being driven in severe

climates with a lot of wet, slushy, highly

dusty roads, or in off-road service, increase

the frequency of spring bushing lubrication.

Rubber Bushings

Rubber bushings are used for extended

service life. If your vehicle is equipped with

rubber bushings DO NOT lubricate them.

Replace the leaf spring if it is damaged or

has premature or excessive wear.
