Real leaf spring mounting area

[Duster2022!]

Does anyone make reinforced brackets to put in place where the rear leaf springs mount to frame? I know they make subframe connectors and torque boxes. Wondering if they made and reinforcement plates for that area?

If you have good metal to work with maybe you can use something like this.

My original mounts are fine I was just looking to see if there was something to add extra strength

I've never heard of it being a weak link. No, i have never heard of a reinforcement plate for that area.

I used them on my cars. Not sure it makes a big difference but I figured it couldn’t hurt.

I think the Hemi cars had them.

The plates are for the front spring mounting location. I've added about 3/4" spacers with longer Grade 8 bolts & all-steel lock nuts to the rear mount to adjust the angle of the rear hanger. Seems like it would cause more stress due to leverage but I never had an issue.

You can always weld any seams that weren't fully welded.
