FAQs

What is the primary function of a leaf spring bush?

A leaf spring bush acts as a pivot point and dampener for the leaf spring within the spring eye. It absorbs road shock and vibration, contributing to a smoother ride and preventing metal-on-metal contact.

Where is this Febi leaf spring bush placed on the vehicle?

This bush is designed for placement on both the front and rear axles, specifically within the spring eye of the leaf spring assembly.

Does this part come with installation instructions?

No, products like this are typically supplied without fitting instructions. It is recommended that installation is carried out by a competent individual or professional mechanic.

What do the dimensions 44mm OD and 16mm ID refer to?

OD stands for Outer Diameter (44 mm), which is the measurement across the widest part of the bush. ID stands for Inner Diameter (16 mm), the measurement across the hole in the center of the bush.

Can I use this bush if my vehicle's original bushes have different dimensions?

No, it is critical to ensure the dimensions (44mm OD, 16mm ID) and placement (front/rear axle) precisely match your vehicle's requirements for safe and effective operation. Always consult your vehicle's service manual or a parts specialist.

How often should leaf spring bushes be replaced?

Leaf spring bushes should be replaced when they show signs of wear, such as cracking, tearing, or excessive play, which can manifest as noise or poor ride quality. There isn't a fixed mileage interval; inspection is key.

Is this product suitable for heavy-duty applications?

The product is designed as an OE replacement. For heavy-duty or specialized applications, confirm that its specifications meet the demands of such use or consult a professional.

Troubleshooting

Clunking noise from suspension

Worn leaf spring bushes can cause noise. Inspect the existing bushes for signs of wear, cracking, or deformation. Replacement with a new Febi 26915 bush may resolve the issue.

Harsh or bumpy ride quality

Degraded bushes fail to absorb road shock effectively. Ensure the Febi 26915 bush is correctly installed and has the appropriate dimensions for your vehicle's spring eye.

Uneven tire wear

While not always the direct cause, worn suspension components including spring bushes can affect wheel alignment. Consult a mechanic to check alignment after replacing bushes.

Difficulty during installation

The bush may require pressing into place. Ensure you are using the correct tools and procedure. If unsure, professional installation is recommended due to the absence of fitting instructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
