Chrysler 300 Leaf Springs

A leaf spring, just like a coil spring, is a mechanical device that uses the natural ability of metal to bend and then return to its initial form. The major difference between these two spring types is geometrical characteristics, which in turn determine the properties of the spring. Leaf springs are generally very simple components that were in use even among the horse-drawn carriages two centuries ago. However, thanks to their durability, load-bearing capacity, simplicity, and cheapness, they are employed even in present-day trucks and some SUVs. Although you will not find leaf springs in the modern Chrysler 300, the older editions of this model manufactured in the 1960s-70s use this kind of springs.

These time-tested parts feature a pretty much unlimited service life, which is why they rarely cause any problems that would require the replacement. There is, however, a different story about their bushings and mounting hardware that are not so durable, especially if the car is often driven on bumpy roads. Fortunately, replacement of this type of equipment is not a big deal. While buying our Chrysler 300 leaf springs & components, you get reasonably priced but still quality and durable replacements.
