Tough
Dog
4WD Leaf Springs
are designed and made in Australia. Using quality
BHP spring steel ensures a consistently high
quality locally produced leaf spring. Tried,
tested and proven in the harsh Australian outback,
Tough Dog has proven to be very reliable and
TOUGH in all conditions.
Tough Dog leaf springs are a truly progressive
rate leaf spring. Each leaf is set slightly higher
than the leaf above so there is contact along the
whole length of the leaf. There is "Single
Stage" and "Two Stage" springs
available for different applications. When a
load-carrying capacity is desired then a "Two
Stage" spring can be used. This will ensure
that the vehicle rides on the first stage when
empty, thus ensuring a safer & comfortable
ride. And when loaded the 2nd stage will
progressively come into place, bumping up the
spring rate and maintaining ride height. The 2nd
stage section will also ensure that the 1st stage
section doesn’t become over stressed.
Each leaf is formed to a template, is oil
quenched, hardened and tempered
before being assembled. The spring is then scragged
and load tested (turned inside out) to ensure
that the spring retains its height. Some spring
have Anti-Friction Pads inserted before assembly
and graphite coated to protects the spring against
corrosion.

Spring
Hanger Kits
When
installing new springs it is
advisable to replace the spring
hangers and pins. If these is sign
of worn out a regular intervals,
particularly after off road use,
hangers and pins should be inspected
for signs of fatigue, corrosion,
wear and damage and be replaced if
necessary.
Available for most leaf spring
vehicles, Tough Dog greasable spring
hanger kits are heavy duty
replacement components made to
exacting tolerances and nickel
plated for long service life.

U
– BOLTS
Tough Dog U-bolts are
matched in length to the ToughDog
leaf spring range, to accommodate
the increase stack height of the Tough
Dog
spring. (Stack height is
the thickness of the spring at the
centre bolt). |

POLY
BUSH KITS |
|
|
|
Tough Dog polyurethane bush is a resilient high
grade component specifically manufactured for
4WD applications. Offering longer life when
compared to rubber bushes they ensure positive
location of suspension component leading to
direct responsive steering, low maintenance and
improved vehicle stability.
Tough Dog bushes have been developed as a more
compliant bush to reduce suspension noise,
vibration and harshness. Design features of the
leaf spring hanger bushes include concave
grooves in the body of the bush allowing for
variation in the size of the spring eye and
retention of grease reducing friction and
binding. This improves suspension performance
dramatically.
A wide range of shock absorber bushes as well as
suspension control Arm Bush Kits to suit coil
spring vehicle are also available.
