Ok, this is our 2007 to current year, 2017 rear spring over stock replacement 1.5 inch
00:13
lift.
00:15
Complements most coil over fronts for leveling purpose.
00:20
This spring here does bolt into stock location which is definitely a benefit.
00:25
No welding, no fabrication, requires a longer shackle.
00:30
A good all around spring, not a weight bearing spring, more tailored towards trail use and
00:37
ride characteristics.
00:41
So we're going to talk about the rebound wrap which is designed to help minimize and control
00:48
axle wrap.
00:49
So this is the forward section of the leaf spring, what we call the stationary end.
00:54
What we do is we take a leaf just starting from behind the axle on top of the main leaf
01:00
going forward and wrapping up and around the existing main leaf securing the forward section
01:07
of the spring.
01:09
Again increasing the spring rate to control axle wrap.
01:13
So it's very proven, it's been used for many years.
01:17
This particular spring goes on a Ford Raptor which has quite a bit of power.
01:22
The truck gets quite a bit of axle wrap and this leaf here does control that.
01:28
So very useful for that reason.
01:32
Okay so this spring here we're looking again at the forward section, the stationary end.
01:38
We do a military wrap which wraps around the existing main leaf.
01:44
If you were to ever break a main leaf out on the trail that would result in losing your
01:49
axle, drive shaft, etc.
01:52
The military wrap would hold that eye in place and allow you to get back to camp or get back
01:58
home.
01:59
In most cases you might not even know you have a main leaf because your axle would not
02:03
change location because of the military wrap.
