TL; DR:
Mitsubishi leaf springs support vehicle weight and locate the axle on applicable suspension systems. Match the exact axle, spring specification, leaf count, dimensions, mounting hardware, and vehicle load configuration.
Sagging ride height, uneven stance, cracked leaves, shifted spring packs, noise, or axle movement can indicate a leaf-spring concern. Bushings, shackles, U-bolts, dampers, frame mounts, and cargo loading can create related symptoms, so inspect the entire suspension before ordering.

Why Genuine OEM Leaf Springs Matter
Spring length, arch, width, rate, leaf count, eye diameter, and locating features affect fit and ride height. Genuine Mitsubishi parts match the original axle and load application. Mixing different spring specifications can create uneven height or handling.
Inspect related shocks, leaf-spring hardware, and axle mounts during the repair.
How to Choose the Right Leaf Spring
Provide the VIN, model year, axle position, drivetrain, cab or body style, payload or suspension package, and original spring markings. Compare spring width, length between mounting points, leaf count, and hardware. Measure ride height on level ground only after accounting for cargo and fuel load.
Leaf springs store substantial energy and support vehicle weight. Use correct lifting and support equipment, replace specified U-bolts or single-use hardware, follow tightening procedures at the prescribed suspension position, and obtain professional service when necessary.
Compatibility and Fitment Guidance
Left and right springs may share or differ in specification depending on the vehicle. Do not mix a standard spring with a heavy-duty or altered pack. Lift blocks, shackles, previous spring work, and added equipment can change the current setup.
Key Takeaways
- Inspect springs, bushings, shackles, mounts, and dampers together.
- Match axle, dimensions, rate, load package, and VIN.
- Use safe support and specified replacement hardware.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can one leaf spring be replaced?
Follow the repair guidance and compare both sides. Age and sag can make paired replacement appropriate in some situations.
Can a cracked leaf be welded?
Do not improvise a repair to a spring. Have the vehicle inspected and replace the affected components using an approved method.
Why does my Mitsubishi sit lower on one side?
Spring condition, uneven load, bushings, mounts, tire pressure, or structural issues can contribute. Measure and inspect before ordering.
