Skyjacker 4" SOFTR FRT SPRGS 73-87 GM

Skyjacker is known for making suspension components that can handle tough conditions, and these front Softride leaf springs are a great example. If you're looking to lift your 1973-1991 GM truck or SUV by about 4 inches, these springs are built to give you a better ride and more wheel travel than stock. They're designed to fit a wide range of vehicles, including popular models like the Chevrolet K10 and GMC Jimmy.

These springs are constructed using American steel, and Skyjacker puts each leaf through a shot-peening process. This involves blasting the steel with hard pellets at high speed, which compresses the surface and increases the spring's tensile strength. This makes the spring more durable and allows for improved flex at the ends, distributing loads more evenly and reducing wear between leaves. Unlike some other designs that use cinch clips which can cause binding, these Softride springs use bolt-style clips to eliminate friction, contributing to a smoother ride and longer spring life.
