Product Description

The Skyjacker 184 Softride Front Coil Springs deliver a precise 4-inch lift for 1980-1996 Ford Broncos, F-150, F-250, and F-350 trucks, providing the ground clearance needed for larger tires, improved off-road capability, and an aggressive stance. Manufactured from premium SAE 5160H chromium alloy steel, these springs offer significantly higher tensile strength and fatigue resistance compared to OEM springs, ensuring they maintain proper ride height and performance characteristics throughout their service life. The advanced manufacturing process includes precision shot peening, where hard steel pellets are blasted at the spring surface at extremely high velocities to work-harden the material and increase resistance to stress cracking and fatigue failure. Each spring is then preset under load to eliminate settling and ensure consistent performance from the first day of installation through decades of use.

What separates Skyjacker Softride springs from competitors is the legendary ride quality they deliver both on-highway and off-road. The carefully engineered spring rates provide a comfortable, controlled ride on paved roads while maintaining the stiffness needed to handle aggressive off-road terrain, heavy payloads, and extreme articulation. The innovative bolt-style spring clips eliminate friction between the coil windings, allowing the springs to flex and compress smoothly without binding or squeaking. The black powder-coat finish provides excellent corrosion resistance against mud, water, road salt, and harsh environmental conditions, maintaining a clean appearance and protecting the steel substrate from rust and degradation. Made in the USA using only American-sourced steel, these springs meet Skyjacker's exacting quality standards that have been refined over more than 45 years in the suspension business.

The 184 coil springs are designed as a front spring upgrade and work with factory rear leaf springs or Skyjacker rear lift components depending on desired overall stance. These springs provide 4 inches of front lift on all 1980-1996 Bronco and F-series trucks. These springs are sold as a set of 2 (left and right front). For a complete suspension system, consider Skyjacker's complete 184PK lift kits which include matching rear components, shocks, brake lines, and all necessary hardware. Professional installation and alignment are recommended after installation. Larger tires may require additional modifications such as trimming, aftermarket wheels with appropriate offset, and upgraded gearing for optimal performance. Backed by Skyjacker's limited lifetime warranty to the original purchaser, the 184 Softride springs represent over four decades of suspension engineering excellence and continue to be one of the most popular lift spring choices for vintage Ford 4x4 enthusiasts.
