As the spring compresses, the secondary stage engages, effectively mitigating excessive sag and enhancing overall performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturing process is meticulously designed to maximize durability, featuring advanced corrosion protection and sag prevention techniques. With up to three distinct spring rate options available for most applications, you can select the optimal spring rate tailored to your vehicle's specific setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese leaf springs are precision mandrel and die-formed, oil quenched, hardened, and tempered to guarantee longevity and resilience. A military wrap is standard across all models, ensuring added strength and reliability. Each spring undergoes accurate heat treatment and is crafted from high-grade spring steel, providing superior performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost applications include anti-friction pads to enhance functionality, and the springs are pre-stressed to maintain optimal ride height. Each unit is rigorously load rate tested to ensure it meets the demands of heavy-duty use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEquipped with additional accessories? No problem! The available spring rates can accommodate extra loads or constant carrying requirements seamlessly. The approximate raised height for these springs is 100mm, with specific models designed for various configurations, such as FS026 for standard loads and FS026H for setups with steel bars and winches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor optimal performance, it is recommended to pair these raised springs with long travel shock absorbers to fully exploit their capabilities.
