Frequently Asked Questions About Freightliner SD 108-122 Leaf Springs, Hangers-Acc.

Will these leaf springs and hangers fit my Freightliner SD 108SD or 114SD model?

Products in this category are designed to fit the Freightliner SD 108-122 series, but leaf spring capacity, length, and hanger configurations can vary by model year, axle position, and suspension setup. Always check the listed specifications and compare them to your truck's OEM part numbers or your suspension manual before ordering to confirm a proper fit.

What is the difference between leaf springs and spring hangers, and do I need to replace both?

Leaf springs are the curved metal spring assemblies that support the vehicle's weight and absorb road shock, while hangers are the mounting brackets that attach the springs to the frame. If your hangers show cracking, excessive wear, or elongated bolt holes, replacing them alongside worn springs is recommended to ensure proper suspension geometry and load support.

How do I know if my current leaf springs or hangers need to be replaced?

Common signs include sagging ride height, uneven tire wear, a rough or bouncy ride, visible cracks in the spring leaves, rust-through, or loose or broken hanger mounts. If you notice clunking noises over bumps or your truck is pulling to one side, it is a good idea to have the suspension inspected.

Do these parts come with the necessary bushings, bolts, and hardware for installation?

This varies by product, so check each listing carefully. Some leaf spring and hanger kits include mounting hardware and bushings, while others are sold as standalone components. If hardware is not included, you will need to source compatible bolts, U-bolts, and bushings separately.

Can I install leaf springs and hangers myself, or should I have a professional do it?

Leaf spring and hanger replacement involves working with heavy components under load and often requires lifting and supporting the axle safely. While experienced DIYers with the right tools and shop equipment can perform this job, many truck owners choose to have this work done by a qualified mechanic or truck service center to ensure proper torque specs, alignment, and safety.
