Standard Auto Spring Works

Bushings, Shackles and Hangers

A good spring pack still depends on sound bushings, shackles and hangers. Worn mounting parts can create noise, movement, poor ride height and damage around the spring eyes.

What you may notice

Signs worth having checked.

  • Clunking or movement from a spring mounting point
  • Cracked, missing or pushed out bushings
  • A shackle sits at an unusual angle
  • Visible wear around spring eyes or hanger bolts
  • The axle or spring pack appears to shift under load

What we look at

The inspection goes beyond one part.

  • Front and rear spring eyes
  • Bushings, pins, bolts and sleeves
  • Shackles and shackle plates
  • Frame mounted hangers and surrounding metal
  • Clearance and movement through the spring travel

Good to know

The surrounding spring and frame condition matters. We inspect the assembly before replacing only the most obvious worn part.
