Frequently asked questions

What is the NRC3888 U-bolt and what does it do?
The NRC3888 is a U-bolt that clamps a leaf spring to the axle casing in the leaf-spring suspension. It passes over the axle casing and draws the spring down onto its seat, with the spring plate and nuts fitted beneath to hold the spring in position.
How many U-bolts do I need per axle?
You'll need four per axle, two per spring, to clamp both leaf springs to the axle casing. They're normally replaced in sets so the clamping load is even across the axle. Order a full set if you're refitting both springs.
Should U-bolts be reused or replaced?
U-bolts are typically replaced rather than reused once they've been disturbed, since the threads and clamping load can stretch over time. Fitting new U-bolts when you drop an axle or change a spring keeps the spring clamped securely to the casing.
Which Land Rovers does the NRC3888 fit?
The NRC3888 typically fits the Series II and III spring-to-axle mounting, from axle suffix E onwards. Fitment data is limited here, so check your axle suffix and the existing U-bolt before ordering to confirm the match.
