Abstract: The target of this research is reducing the weight and cost of leaf spring by changing the material of the leaf spring which is currently in use. Mani number of trial testing of composite leaf spring comprised of glass fibre reinforced polymer is tested and compared to the weight of the metal used in leaf spring. Compared to existing leaf spring is 34% less in cost. From the creation it was found that the weight reduction of 28% is accomplished by utilizing composite material without yielding the quality.
