Product Description

The Skyjacker C260AJKS 6-Inch Softride Suspension Lift Kit transforms 1969-1972 Chevrolet K5 Blazer and 1970-1972 GMC Jimmy 4WD vehicles with dramatically improved ground clearance, larger tire capability, and superior ride quality compared to factory suspension. Skyjacker's legendary Softride technology produces the highest quality leaf spring systems in the industry, utilizing shot-peened American steel that compresses the surface material to significantly increase tensile strength without sacrificing maximum wheel travel or ride comfort. Each leaf spring features tapered leaves over the entire length that distribute loads more evenly, reduce the tendency for leaf-on-leaf binding, and yield a lower spring rate for better travel both on and off-road. Teflon wear pads between leaves further reduce interleaf friction, while bolt-style spring clips eliminate the binding associated with traditional cinch-style designs. The progressive multi-leaf pack construction ensures load capacity meets or exceeds original equipment specifications, making this kit suitable for vehicles that see heavy use or carry additional weight. All metal components receive durable powder coat black finish to resist corrosion and maintain appearance in demanding conditions. The complete kit includes front and rear Softride leaf springs, U-bolt kits for both axles, bushing kit, and brake line brackets with all necessary hardware. A steering arm such as the Skyjacker CA100 is required for proper steering geometry after installation and is sold separately. A steering stabilizer is also recommended to replace worn components during installation for optimal handling characteristics.
