Lovells Leaf Springs are designed as a superior replacement part for mass-produced
O.E (Original Equipment) leaf springs.
Lovells offer a vast range of semi elliptic leaf springs to satisfy popular ride
height variations and load carrying capabilities. Lovells leaf springs
have the outstanding characteristics of not only acting as a spring, to
resiliently support the vehicle, but also serve to position the axle,
dampen vertical deflection and cushion both driving torque and brake reaction.
Lovells leaf springs are manufactured to the highest standard from Australian
Made OneSteel micro alloy steel.
All Leaf springs are cambered on in-house designed and manufactured machines
before being assembled, rate tested and inspected. All leaf springs are
enamel dipped in Lovells Navy Blue ready for dispatch.
2 YEAR WARRANTY

Installation Tips
Check your leaf spring selection to ensure you have the correct spring
for your intended application. When fitting, the Military Wrap end of
the leaf spring is always fitted to the fixed pin chassis mount point.
(exception: Nissan MQ Patrol). Some Lovells leaf springs are marked D/S
(Drivers Side) and P/S (Passenger Side). If springs are not marked, a
quick way to distinguish between the two is: turn them up and rest on
spring eyes along side each other. Push down in the centre of each to
settle free camber, and pick the highest of the pair. The higher free
camber spring is fitted to the drivers side of the vehicle. This is to
offset the weight of the driver in many cases. It is also advisable to
check centre-bolts on spring before installation. New high tensile Lovells
U-Bolts and deep nuts must be used when fitting Lovells leaf springs.
IMPORTANT: U-Bolts must be checked regularly and retensioned for maximum
leaf spring life. After fitment of Lovells leaf springs, U-bolts must
be retensioned after 500km with vehicle fully laden. Failure to do so
may void Lovells leaf spring warranty. Lovells recommend all U-bolts be
checked regularly (at normal service intervals) and retensioned if required.
Torque settings are available upon request.
