Product Description

The Old Man Emu CS012FB front leaf spring is a rugged Dakar-series suspension component designed specifically for 1986-1995 Suzuki Samurai 4WD vehicles with the 1.3L engine. This spring improves upon worn or stock leaf packs by offering enhanced load carrying capability, increased ride comfort, and greater durability - ideal for light off-road use, trail driving, or daily driving where improved suspension performance is desired. The draw-tapered, diamond-cut leaf design distributes loads progressively to reduce stress and improve durability, while fully scragged leaves help retain spring arch and reduce sag over time. 

Featuring bolted clamps to support anti-squeak nylon liners, re-greasable interleaf pads to reduce noise, and a flat axle seat design for secure mounting, the CS012FB delivers predictable performance and longevity. This leaf spring also incorporates a shot-peened tension side to resist internal stress and extend spring life. When installed, this front spring provides approximately a 1.5" (40 mm) lift over stock ride height, aiding ground clearance and compatibility with larger tires when paired with appropriate shocks and alignment adjustments.

Sold individually, the CS012FB is perfect for Samurai owners restoring suspension performance or upgrading their vehicle for mild lift and improved load support. Bushings and installation hardware are not included and should be sourced separately. Professional alignment after installation is recommended for optimal handling and tire wear.
