A fibre reinforced composite leaf spring is provided at its end with an end fitting for attachment to a rigid part of a vehicle. The end fitting 11 comprises an attachment member which fits snugly within an arcuate recess defined by a terminal portion of the spring. A sheet metal clamping member surrounds and reinforces the attachment member and recess and is rivetted or otherwise fastened to the leaf spring at a position remote from its terminal portion. The terminal portion of the spring extends around the attachment member at least beyond a position at right-angles to the longitudinal axis of the spring. |
