Designed in Australia, Tough Dog progressive rate leaf springs incorporate both primary and secondary stage leaves, ensuring that the vehicle's ride quality remains uncompromised under varying load conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs the spring compresses under load, the secondary stage engages, effectively preventing excessive sag and maintaining optimal ride height. The manufacturing process is meticulously engineered to maximize durability, offering robust corrosion resistance and sag prevention, ensuring longevity in demanding environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTough 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 guarantee extended service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStandard features include military wrap across all part numbers, accurate heat treatment, and construction from high-grade spring steel. Many applications also incorporate anti-friction pads to enhance performance. The springs are pre-stressed to maintain ride height and are rigorously load rate tested to ensure reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor vehicles equipped with additional accessories, Tough Dog offers various spring rates to accommodate constant load carrying. This is particularly relevant for fixed accessories such as canopies, steel trays, draw systems, fridges, toolboxes, rear bars, or spare wheel carriers, which contribute to the overall load on the vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eApproximate raised height specifications are as follows: FS368C-LH and FS368C-RH are designed for light loads of 0-300kg on the passenger and driver sides, respectively. FS368L-LH and FS368L-RH cater to constant loads of 300kg on the passenger and driver sides, respectively. It is advisable to pair raised springs with long travel shock absorbers to optimize performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eChoosing the appropriate spring rate is crucial for achieving the best results in load carrying, ride quality, and ride height.
