Dodge Dakota Suspension Coil Springs

The suspension underpinning your Dodge Dakota is based on two principal components – a shock and spring. The former transforms kinetic energy into heat, whereas the latter forms a flexible foundation that the chassis lies on. The springs differ in their forms and performance – leaf springs, torsion bars, air bags, and coil springs. They all serve the same aim but have their own specific pros and cons. Providing a good spring rate, softness, small longitudinal and lateral dimensions, and cheapness, coil springs remain the most popular choice among car engineers. That’s how your Dodge Dakota ended up with this sort of equipment.

Coil springs are exceptionally simple and thus durable and dependable. It’s quite hard to get one broken. However, coil springs are susceptible to softening through frequent deformations. Although the service life of coil springs tends to be incredibly long, it’s not going to be infinite. Sagging of your pickup truck’s body will tell you it's approaching the end of its lifespan. Driving a sagged vehicle can be unsafe, because the suspension doesn't work properly.
