What is the purpose of the nylon interleaf pads?

The re-greasable nylon interleaf pads are placed between the leaf springs to reduce friction at the leaf tips. This helps to provide a quieter ride and prevent squeaking noises.

What does 'shot peened' mean for these leaf springs?

Shot peening is a process where small metal beads are fired at the spring material. This creates compressive stress on the surface, which helps to reduce overall spring stress and increase its resistance to fatigue and cracking, ultimately extending its life.

Are these leaf springs designed for a specific ride height or lift?

While the manufacturer description focuses on ride performance and load capacity, these springs are part of an integrated suspension system. For specific lift height information, it's best to consult the manufacturer's detailed specifications or a suspension specialist.

Product Details

When you're looking to give your 1980-1989 Toyota Land Cruiser a suspension upgrade, the Old Man Emu (OME) Dakar leaf springs are a solid option. These springs are designed to work as part of an integrated system, aiming to provide a better ride no matter what conditions your truck faces, whether it's for weekend adventures or daily work.

What you get with these springs are features aimed at improving both comfort and durability. They include re-greasable nylon pads between the leaves to cut down on friction and noise, and most rear springs use a two-stage pack for a more comfortable ride. The leaves themselves are shot peened and fully scragged to reduce stress and prevent sagging over time, and they feature a military wrap design for added safety. The flat axle seat area ensures a secure mount, and bolted leaf clamps allow for the installation of anti-squeak liners.

These springs are load tested to ensure they meet specifications, and the draw-tapered and diamond-cut leaves are part of the overall design to enhance performance and longevity.
