Skyjacker 8" Softride Front Leaf Springs for 1973-1987 GM Trucks

Elevate your off-road experience and on-road comfort with Skyjacker's 8" Softride Front Leaf Springs, specifically engineered for 1973-1987 GM K10, K20, Blazer, and Jimmy models. These premium leaf springs are crafted from high-quality American steel, ensuring exceptional strength and longevity for demanding conditions.

Advanced Softride Technology for Unmatched Performance

Skyjacker's innovative Softride technology incorporates several key features to deliver a superior ride:

  • Shot-Peened Construction: Each individual leaf is shot-peened with hard steel pellets at high velocities, compressing the steel surface to significantly increase tensile strength and extend spring life.
  • Bolt-Style Spring Clips: Unlike traditional cinch-style clips that cause binding and friction, Softride springs utilize bolt-style clips, promoting smoother articulation and eliminating unwanted friction.
  • Tapered Leaf Design: The leafs are tapered over their entire length, allowing for greater flex at the ends. This design distributes loads more evenly across a larger area, reducing stress points and enhancing overall suspension performance.

These features combine to provide maximum wheel travel and an exceptionally smooth ride, whether you're tackling rugged trails or cruising the highway. Upgrade your classic GM truck with Skyjacker Softride springs for a noticeable improvement in handling and comfort. Find the best suspension solutions at GGCRACING.
