Toyota Hilux parabolic leaf springs are an essential upgrade component of your vehicle's suspension system, providing support and stability while you're on the road. These springs are designed to absorb shock and vibration, keeping your ride smooth and comfortable. +

What Are Parabolic Leaf Springs?

Parabolic Leaf Springs typically contain fewer leafs than traditional leaf packs and get their name from their tapered “parabolic” design, meaning they are thicker in the centre and thinner at the ends.

Parabolic springs are made from high-quality materials that can withstand the rigors of driving on rough terrain. They're also designed to provide a comfortable ride, even when your Hilux is carrying a heavy load.

Benefits Of Upgrading To Parabolic Leaf Springs

If you're looking for a way to improve the performance of your Hilux and make your driving experience more enjoyable, consider upgrading to Toyota Hilux parabolic leaf springs. Thanks to their superior design and construction, they offer a significant advantage over standard springs.

Benefits include:

  • Improved ride quality
  • Increased support and stability
  • Enhanced comfort while driving
  • Better overall performance from your Hilux.

Investing in a set of Terrain Tamer parabolic leaf springs will provide years of trouble-free performance, delivering a smoother ride and improved handling. Close

Utilising new technology on an old design, the parabolic springs allow for a comfortable ride whether the vehicle is fully loaded or empty.

  • Lighter – Less unsprung weight
  • Less Shock – Less shock load on the differential gears
  • Quieter – The leafs do not touch each other
  • Comfortable – With better articulation
  • Strong – Exceptional load carrying capability

Parabolic Leaf Springs

Parabolic Leaf Springs typically contain fewer leafs than traditional leaf packs and get their name from their tapered “parabolic” design, meaning they are thicker in the centre and thinner at the ends. Already a well-established idea in the trucking industry, Terrain Tamer have applied their own carefully researched design and modern technology, and use a special grade steel to develop their range of Parabolic Leaf Springs specifically for 4WD vehicles.

Traditionally heavy linear leaf packs can also be uncomfortable and loud and can create a safety issue, as they offer little to no flex, meaning that when a driver hits a bump, or finds themselves in a rough offroad situation, the rigidity of the leaf pack will cause the opposite wheel will lift, spinning and losing traction, ceasing drive and effectively endangering the driver. In a Parabolic spring, the tapered design of each leaf allows the stress to be distributed more evenly across the spring, and each leaf is allowed to work independently with enhanced flex without sacrificing load capacity, and keeping all four wheels on the ground.

This design of Parabolic Springs eliminates the weight of often heavy, thick, traditional leaf packs and dramatically reducing the unsprung weight of the vehicle, essentially freeing up the weight needed for practical use. This lower unsprung weight addresses the issue of GVM limits, and also acts to create a more comfortable ride when the vehicle is unloaded, accommodating the varying and ever-changing applications that the modern day 4WD is used for, freeing up weight for towing heavy loads, carrying tools or touring with the family, and ensuring it is comfortable whether empty or loaded. The Parabolic shape also provides better axle articulation, as well as almost no interleaf friction, allowing the spring to compress or extend with ease without touching each other until there is a reasonable load on the vehicle. This feature means that the springs are not only quieter, but it also acts to help minimise any issues with rust build up, which can be a major cause of failure in standard leaf springs.

The Parabolic design allows the spring to flex while still providing the strength needed to bear the weight of heavy loads. This is particularly useful in 4WD applications that carry excessive load on the driveline, or when challenged with difficult terrain, as the flex afforded with a Parabolic Spring lets it give a little when the driver hits a bump in the road, allowing the differential housing to rotate with the springs and effectively providing a smoother ride, reducing the shock transferred to the crown wheel and pinion, stopping the wheel from spinning and maintaining safety and drive. The same force with a standard leaf pack would almost certainly cause more shock to the vehicle and driver

 

Toyota Hilux Parabolic Leaf Springs FAQ

Toyota Hilux parabolic leaf springs are an advanced spring design that provides improved ride quality, load carrying abilities, and towing capacity compared to traditional leaf springs. The unique parabolic shape of the springs gives them the ability to provide a smoother ride despite increased load carrying capacities. The progressive rate also helps reduce axle wrap and body roll for improved vehicle stability and better control in off-road conditions.

Toyota Hilux parabolic leaf springs provide improved load carrying capacity and ride quality by utilising a unique parabolic design. The progressive rate of the spring allows it to absorb shock more effectively, resulting in increased comfort and better handling over traditional leaf springs. This also helps reduce axle wrap and body roll, improving the overall stability of the vehicle while off roading.

Toyota Hilux parabolic leaf springs offer several advantages over traditional leaf springs. These include improved load carrying capacity and ride quality, reduced axle wrap and body roll for better stability and control, increased towing capacity, greater comfort off roading, and more predictable handling in all conditions. Additionally, these springs are designed with an eye toward durability.
