Emu Dakar leaf
springs
are engineered to provide
optimum ride performance
irrespective of the operating
conditions the suspension
is required to work under.
Numerous spring options are available to suit a multitude
of applications, allowing you to set your vehicle up for
recreational or commercial purposes. Feature packed, a set
of Emu Dakar leaf springs matched to a set of Old Man Emu
shocks will deliver vastly improved ride, handling and load
carrying capability.
Draw Tapered & Diamond Cut Leaves: Ensure the load is progressively
distributed over a larger surface area, reducing the high
stresses that develop at leaf ends. This provides increased
ride quality and protection against leaf breakage, significantly
increasing the spring life.
Bolt Clamps & Liners: The leaf clamps are bolted to allow
installation of anti squeak nylon liners.
Fully Scragged & Load Tested: Scragging ensures the spring
takes a permanent 'set' which reduces the risk of sagging.
Load testing ensures the spring meets the required specification.
Graphite Coating: To further reduce the friction between
the spring leaves & friction pads.
Military Wrap: Designed to provide added safety.
Anti Friction Pads: Regreasable nylon interleaf liners
reduce friction at the leaf tips where the load is the
greatest.
Flat Axle Seat Area: Allows a positive, safe axle mount
reducing spring stress & increasing spring life.
Shot Peening: The tension side of all leaves is shot
peened to reduce spring stress. This process can double
the life of a spring.
Two-stage Leaf Pack: Featured on most rear springs for
optimum comfort. When unladen the vehicle is largely
riding on the primary stage, with the secondary stage
providing additional support when a heavy load is added.
Please note: Most Emu Dakar leaf springs have all the
listed features, but where design or a physical limitation
exists one or more of these features may not be incorporated.
Please check with your OME licensed fitter for further
