TD-T88LL

Leaf springs represent one of the most enduring suspension designs in automotive engineering, maintaining their relevance particularly in commercial vehicles due to their exceptional load-bearing capabilities.

Engineered in Australia, Tough Dog progressive rate leaf springs incorporate a sophisticated design featuring both primary and secondary stage leaves. This dual-stage configuration ensures that the vehicle's ride quality remains uncompromised under varying load conditions. As the spring compresses, the secondary stage engages to mitigate excessive sag, thereby enhancing overall performance.

The manufacturing process of these leaf springs is meticulously executed to guarantee maximum durability, corrosion resistance, and sag prevention. Tough Dog provides a selection of up to three spring rate options for most applications, allowing for tailored solutions that best fit your vehicle's specific setup.

Each spring is precision mandrel and die-formed, oil quenched, hardened, and tempered to ensure longevity and resilience. A military wrap is standard across all part numbers, and the springs are accurately heat-treated to optimize performance. Constructed from high-grade spring steel, these leaf springs also feature anti-friction pads in most applications, and are pre-stressed to maintain optimal ride height.

For vehicles equipped with additional accessories, Tough Dog offers various spring rates to accommodate constant load scenarios. The approximate lift height provided by these springs ranges from 40-50mm, with specific ratings as follows: T88C for light loads (0-300kg), T88L for constant loads (300kg), and T88LL for heavier constant loads (500kg).

It is advisable to pair these raised springs with long travel shock absorbers to achieve the best performance. Constant load refers to weight that is permanently added to the vehicle, such as fixed accessories like canopies, steel trays, draw systems, fridges, toolboxes, rear bars, or spare wheel carriers. Selecting the appropriate spring rate is crucial for optimizing load carrying capacity, ride quality, and maintaining the desired ride height.
