What is the benefit of shot-peening the leaf springs?

Shot-peening compresses the surface of the steel at high velocity. This process increases the tensile strength of the spring, allowing for more wheel travel and improved ride quality without sacrificing the spring's lifespan.

How do these springs differ from designs with cinch-style clips?

These Softride springs use bolt-style clips, which eliminate friction and binding. Other designs use cinch-style clips that bend tightly over the spring leaves, potentially causing binding and reducing ride quality.

What else might I need to complete a 4-inch lift installation?

While these leaf springs provide the lift, you may need additional components such as longer shocks, brake line extensions, or a steering stabilizer depending on your specific vehicle and desired setup. Always consult the manufacturer's installation guide for a complete list.

Product Details

If you're looking to lift your 2000-2005 Ford Excursion by 4 inches, these Skyjacker Softride leaf springs are a solid option. They're designed to give you that extra height while also improving the ride quality over stock. This kit is specifically for the gas engine models, ensuring a proper fit and function for your truck.

Skyjacker uses American steel for these springs, and they go a step further by shot-peening the individual leaves. This process compresses the steel's surface, which really increases its tensile strength. This means the springs can handle more flex and give you better wheel travel without wearing out prematurely. Unlike some other designs that use cinch clips which can cause binding and friction, these Softride springs use bolt-style clips that eliminate that issue. The leaves also taper over their entire length, creating more flex at the ends. This design helps distribute loads more evenly and reduces the chance of one leaf digging into the one above it, contributing to a smoother ride.

This kit includes the leaf springs and bolt-style clips. You'll want to refer to the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details on mounting and any other components you might need to complete the lift, such as shocks or brake line extensions, depending on your specific setup.
