Leaf Spring Perch and Plates for Spring Over Axle Builds (Pair)

Artec's Leaf Spring Perch and Plates set replaces the usual U-bolt clamp on a spring-over-axle build with a bolt-through design that spreads spring load across four bolts instead of two. Built to integrate with the Artec Modular Truss system, the set includes truss end caps so the perches transition seamlessly into the truss and turn the spring mount into part of the axle's reinforcement. Three leaf pin positions give you an inch of fore-aft adjustment to fine-tune axle placement under the springs. It is a weld-on fabrication component for leaf-sprung SOA swaps, sold as a pair.

Features

• Eliminates U-bolts — spring load spreads across four bolts rather than two
• 3/8" thick top plates and perches with 1/4" gussets
• Three leaf pin positions for 1" adjustments forward or back
• Included truss end caps blend the perches into Artec Modular Trusses
• Sized for 2.5"-wide leaf springs with a 3.25"-3.375" notch
• Fits variable axle tube diameters — grind the small locating tabs for larger tubes
• Sold as a pair, one per side

Mounting hardware is not included since leaf pack thickness varies build to build; Grade 8 bolts with nylon locking nuts are the right call. Measure your spring width and tube diameter before ordering, and plan on welding — these are weld-on perches best left to a competent welder. They pair with modular trusses like the 60 Rear Truss and 14 Bolt Modular Truss, with extra Modular Truss Ends available to finish the assembly. Browse more leaf spring parts and axle reinforcements.
