What is shot-peening and why is it important for these springs?

Shot-peening is a process where the steel is blasted with hard pellets at high velocity. This compresses the surface of the steel, increasing its tensile strength. For these springs, it means they can offer improved wheel travel and ride quality without compromising their lifespan.

How do these springs differ from other designs?

These Skyjacker Softride springs use bolt-style clips instead of 'C' style clips, which helps eliminate friction and binding between the leaves. Additionally, the leaves are tapered over their entire length, which distributes loads more evenly and reduces wear.

What is the expected load capacity compared to stock?

The load capacity of these rear leaf springs will be equal to or greater than the original equipment specifications for your Jeep Wrangler.

Jeep Wrangler 1987-1995

Product Details

Skyjacker is known for making tough suspension components, and these Softride rear leaf springs are a great example for your 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler. If you're looking to lift your Jeep between 2 and 2.5 inches, these springs are built to handle the job while improving your ride quality.

These springs are constructed using American steel, and each leaf goes through a shot-peening process. This involves blasting the steel with hard pellets at high speeds, which compresses the surface and increases the spring's tensile strength. This advanced treatment is key to achieving better wheel travel and a more comfortable ride without sacrificing the spring's lifespan. Unlike other designs that can cause binding and friction, Skyjacker uses bolt-style spring clips and tapers the leaf ends to distribute loads evenly and reduce wear between the leaves.

These rear springs are designed to match or exceed the original equipment load capacity. They come as progressive multi-leaf packs, offering a solid option for lifting your YJ.
