Nissan Leaf Rear Springs: Specs, Fitment & Common Faults

The Leaf's underfloor battery pack changes its weight distribution enough that the rear spring is specific to this EV platform.

An EV-Specific Rear Spring

Genuinely worth knowing: the Leaf's underfloor battery pack significantly changes weight distribution compared with a conventional petrol car, so the rear spring rate is matched specifically to this platform rather than shared with an unrelated model.

A Part That Fails Quietly, Then Suddenly

A rear spring often sags gradually for months without an obvious symptom beyond a slightly lower ride height, then fails suddenly at the coil's end with an audible clunk — worth bearing in mind if you notice one rear corner sitting lower than the other.

Before you buy: generation (Mk1 vs Mk2) affects spring rate and fitment. Always confirm against your VIN before ordering.

OEM Part Numbers

Accuracy note: genuinely worth knowing: confirm your exact generation (Mk1 vs Mk2), since battery and weight specifications changed enough between generations to affect suspension component references.

Always replace rear springs in pairs — a single new spring paired with an old, sagged one on the other side creates an uneven ride height and handling bias.

What It Does

The rear coil spring supports the weight of the car's rear end and absorbs the initial impact of a bump, working alongside the shock absorber rather than replacing its function. A sagged or broken spring lowers ride height, can affect headlight aim, and in severe cases is an MOT failure item.
