Leaf Spring is the rear passenger-side leaf spring for long-wheelbase (LWB) chassis, of 8+2 leaf construction. Land Rover lists it as the left-hand (nearside) unit - the left side of the vehicle viewed facing forwards, whichever side the steering wheel is on. Its opposite number is 279678.

It forms part of the rear suspension, locating the rear axle and carrying the rear load while absorbing road shock. The leaf pack comprises eight main leaves supplemented by two additional leaves, giving the higher load capacity required by the long-wheelbase platform.

Frequently asked questions

What is the LWB rear passenger-side Leaf Spring (279679) for?
The Leaf Spring 279679 is the rear passenger-side spring for long-wheelbase Land Rovers, of 8+2 leaf construction. It locates the rear axle and carries the rear load while absorbing road shock, using eight main leaves plus two extra leaves for the higher capacity a long-wheelbase platform needs.
Which Land Rovers does this rear leaf spring fit?
This is the rear passenger-side leaf spring for long-wheelbase Land Rover Series 2 and 3, and the classic Defender 110 and 130, in petrol and diesel form. It is LWB-specific, so it will not suit short-wheelbase 88 or 90 models.
Should rear leaf springs be replaced in pairs?
It's usually best to replace rear leaf springs as a pair. A sagging or cracked leaf pack on one side lets the rear sit unevenly and upsets handling, so a matching spring on the other side keeps ride height and load balance even. Signs of wear include sagging and cracked leaves. The opposite side takes 279678.
Is this the left or right rear leaf spring?
This is the left-hand spring — the left side of the vehicle viewed facing forwards, whichever side the steering wheel is on. Land Rover calls this the nearside (N/S), and we list it as the passenger side. The right-hand side takes its own handed spring, 279678. This part also cross-references to STC3098 and BR 1429 for the long-wheelbase rear application.
