Description
We’ve designed our ART-171 Rear Spring Mount as an OEM spec, weld-in replacement for the original spring mount for the forward mount of the rear leaf spring. The original mount must be completely removed from the surface of the frame and the frame ground to clean metal. Weld your new ART-171-L onto the frame, re-attach the leaf spring and your back on the road.
Our ART-171-L is made from 11ga CRS steel sourced only from US/Canada, we NEVER use imported steel. Also, each mount comes with new M16-2.0-120 Gr 10.9 HCS and weld nut for installing the leaf spring.
Installation instruction come with each ART-171 ordered.
PLEASE NOTE: THIS PART WILL ONLY FIT THE STANDARD BED! IT WILL NOT WORK ON THE LONG BED!

Worked perfect and being able to install the bolt from the outside is a huge time saver since the fuel tank is right in the way for installing it as the factory did. Took about 1Hr to install with good prep. Saved me from having to fabricate a new bracket myself which would’ve taken hours to do correctly. As always, a great product. Will be returning in the future for any rusted frame/mount needs!

I have an 08 crew cab ltz the rear spring forward mount rusted and snapped. Realized this part isn’t readily available or made to replace until I stumbled across this company. They are a saving grace! Part is an exact match, shipped out the day after my order being I placed the order around 6pm and arrived within 4 days (may have been three didn’t check the mail the day prior)
Keep in mind you will have to either grind and fab the existing bracket to install this or pay a shop to do it for you.
