Leaf Springs for Rally and Motorsport Cars

Browse our range of leaf springs for rally cars, race cars, fast road vehicles and classic motorsport builds. West Wales Rally Spares supplies rear suspension spring options for competition handling setups, axle location, ride height changes, rebuilds and regular maintenance.

Leaf springs are a key part of the rear suspension setup on Ford Escort Mk1, Escort Mk2 and many classic rally cars. They help support the vehicle, locate the rear axle and influence traction, stability and handling balance during rally, race and fast road use.

Escort Mk1 and Escort Mk2 Leaf Springs

West Wales Rally Spares specialises in Ford Escort Mk1 and Escort Mk2 rally parts, making this category suitable for historic rally builds, road rally cars, stage rally cars, fast road Escorts and classic Ford motorsport projects. Leaf springs should be matched to your axle setup, dampers, lowering blocks, bushes, shackles and intended use.

Single Leaf, Multi Leaf, Tarmac and Gravel Spring Options

Different leaf spring specifications can suit different motorsport applications. Single leaf and multi leaf designs may offer different ride and handling characteristics, while tarmac and gravel setups can vary depending on ride height, axle control, suspension travel and surface conditions.

Rear Suspension Setup and Axle Control

Choosing the correct leaf springs can affect traction, ride height, body control, axle location and driver confidence. They are often used alongside rear dampers, anti-tramp bars, Panhard rods, Watts linkages, bushes and shackles to create a stable and predictable rear suspension setup.

Build, Upgrade and Maintain Your Rally Rear Suspension

Leaf springs are commonly replaced during rear suspension rebuilds, handling upgrades and competition servicing. When choosing springs, consider vehicle fitment, spring rate, ride height, arch clearance, damper length, axle type and event surface.
