Fitment Notes

  • Rear position only - delivers 4 inches of rear lift height with factory block installed
  • Removing the factory block reduces lift by 3.5 inches on Gas models; 4-6 inches on Cummins Diesel models
  • Sold individually (single spring); order two for a complete rear axle replacement
  • Pre-installed rubber bushings included - no separate bushing kit required for most applications
  • 1992-1993 models with 3/4-inch spring eye bolts require Bushing Kit SE17D - sold separately
  • U-bolt Kit (part # UTBR) available separately for installation with OEM axle
  • Optional Fitted Leaf (part # FLDR40) available separately for added load capacity from winches, overland accessories, or motor swaps

Features

  • Individually shot-peened with hard steel pellets to compress the steel surface and significantly increase tensile strength
  • Full-length tapered leaf design distributes load more evenly and creates greater flex at the leaf ends for improved articulation
  • Teflon® wear pads between leaves eliminate interleaf friction for a smoother, quieter ride
  • Bolt-style spring clips prevent the binding and friction caused by standard cinch-style bend clips
  • Multi-leaf pack construction (4 leaves + overload + shim) delivers GVW rating equal to or greater than OEM
  • Pre-installed rubber bushings simplify installation and reduce noise at spring mounting points
  • Built from American steel for long-term durability on and off-road
  • Backed by Skyjacker's Limited Lifetime Warranty

Product Description

The Skyjacker DR40S is a 4-inch rear Softride® lift leaf spring built for 1972-1993 Dodge W-Series 4WD pickups, the Dodge Ramcharger, and Plymouth Trailduster. Its shot-peened American steel construction and tapered multi-leaf design provide a solid 4 inches of rear lift with the factory block in place - or can be run at reduced height by removing the block, making it versatile for both full-lift and moderate-lift configurations. Pre-installed rubber bushings are included, simplifying installation compared to springs that require separate bushing kits.

The DR40S installs directly in factory spring locations with no cutting or welding. Note that 1992-1993 models with 3/4-inch spring eye bolts require the SE17D bushing kit sold separately. Sold as a single spring; two are needed for a complete rear axle set. An optional Fitted Leaf (FLDR40) is available separately for builds carrying significant extra weight from winches or overland gear.
