Ford F-450, F-550 Leaf Springs

When you have a Ford F-450 or F-550, you need it to haul loads or even people. A broken or worn down leaf spring not only gives you a rough ride, but it can also make it difficult to carry loads safely. At General Spring, we have a variety of F-450 and F-550 leaf springs that will perfectly fit your truck and help you keep it running at its best.

About the Ford F-450 and F-550

The Ford F-series has a long history dating back to 1948. From the first generation of F-1 pickups to the introduction of the Super Duty models, the F-450 and F-550 helped bridge the gap between Ford's pickup trucks and large medium-duty F-650 and F-750 models. These models helped push Ford's Super Duty models into the Class 5 truck market.

The F-450 and F-550 Super Duty trucks have various exterior features, including extended front bumpers and front fenders. These truck models also have chassis cabs for commercial upfitters and are largely marketed toward fleet buyers.

When Do You Need a Leaf Spring Upgrade?

If you use an F-450 or F-550 for work, where you're constantly hauling weight, your F-450 leaf springs may need replacing more often. As the years and miles rack up, check your Ford F-550 Super Duty regularly to make sure its leaf springs are in good working condition. Whether a leaf spring breaks or simply endures wear and tear or overloading, it's a good idea to be aware of the signs that a leaf spring could give out.

It's time to replace your F-550 leaf springs when you notice these signs:

  • The truck isn't level and leans from side to side
  • The rear of your truck sits lower than the front, and even a light load causes the back to sag
  • You bottom out frequently
  • Front sits low and falls when you brake
  • You can't keep the truck in one lane
  • You can see your rear tire in your side mirror
  • You hear loud noises going over bumps
