ARBEL095R Superceded by ARBEL111R
This is for a "PAIR" (2) Leaf springs (Sold as a Pair)
Great emphasis was placed on ride comfort, with and without a payload, which led to three loading scenarios using the same leaf spring part number (EL095R). For stock loads where no weight is added, it is recommended to remove a leaf from the spring pack to maximize ride comfort and achieving a 2 inch ride height increase. For heavy applications an extra leaf has been designed.
-
Stock loads (0lbs to GVM, optimal performance at loads of 0-300lbs) *Removal of third leaf required
-
Constant 300lbs (300lbs to GVM, optimal performance at loads of 300-600lbs)
-
Constant 600lbs (600lbs to GVM, optimal performance at loads of 600lbs plus) *Extra leaf required
-
The removal or addition of a leaf spring would need to be completed for those individuals knowing that their rear load scenarios would be lighter or heavier than the constant 300+ lbs load the spring is designed around.
OME Dakar leaf springs feature:
- Draw Tapered & Diamond Cut Leaves: Ensure the load is progressively distributed over a larger surface area, reducing the high stresses that develop at leaf ends. This provides increased ride quality and protection against leaf breakage, significantly increasing the spring life.
-
Bolt Clamps & Liners: The leaf clamps are bolted to allow installation of anti squeak nylon liners.
-
Fully Scragged & Load Tested: Scragging ensures the spring takes a permanent ‘set’ which reduces the risk of sagging. Load testing ensures the spring meets the required specification.
-
Graphite Coating: To further reduce the friction between the spring leaves & friction pads.
-
Military Wrap: Designed to provide added safety.
-
Anti Friction Pads: Re-greasable nylon interleaf liners reduce friction at the leaf tips where the load is the greatest.
-
Flat Axle Seat Area: Allows a positive, safe axle mount reducing spring stress & increasing spring life.
-
Shot Peening: The tension side of all leaves is shot peened to reduce spring stress. This process can double the life of a spring.
-
Two-stage Leaf Pack: Featured on most rear springs for optimum comfort. When unladen the vehicle is largely riding on the primary stage, with the secondary stage providing additional support when a heavy load is added.
-
Please note: Most Emu Dakar leaf springs have all the listed features, but where design or a physical limitation exists one or more of these features may not be incorporated. Please check with your OME licensed fitter for further information.
