The Skyjacker Leaf Spring for 1955-1975 Jeep CJ5 is a high-performance suspension component designed to enhance ride quality and durability. Constructed with American steel, these Softride springs feature individual leafs that are shot-peened with hard steel pellets at high velocities, increasing tensile strength and ensuring maximum wheel travel. The tapering along the entire length of each leaf allows for more flex at the ends, distributing loads evenly and reducing the risk of leaf binding. Bolt-style spring clips are used to eliminate friction and binding issues common with other designs, resulting in smoother operation and longer spring life. These springs are engineered to improve off-road capability and load handling while maintaining ride comfort.
Designed specifically for 1955-1975 Jeep CJ5 models, these springs serve as a direct replacement for the stock suspension components. They are suitable for off-road use, daily driving, or applications requiring enhanced load capacity and flex. Installation involves bolt-on replacement of existing leaf springs, making it a straightforward upgrade for Jeep enthusiasts. The kit includes the necessary leaf springs with the specified part number J34FS, ensuring compatibility with the vehicle’s chassis. These springs are ideal for those seeking increased wheel travel, improved ride quality, and extended spring lifespan in their off-road or on-road Jeep CJ5.

Overview
Overview
Softride(R) springs use only American steel and the individual leafs of each spring are shot-peened with hard steel pellets at very high velocities. This shot-peening compresses the surface of the steel thereby increasing the tensile strength of the spring. Without this shot-peening procedure, the maximum wheel travel and ride quality could not be achieved without sacrificing the life of the spring. Softride(R) springs use bolt style spring clips, eliminating friction. Other spring designs use the c in. style bend clips which bend tightly over the spring leafs causing binding and friction. Skyjacker(R) Softride(R) springs taper over the entire length of the leaf creating more flex at the leaf ends. This tapering distributes loads more evenly over a greater area and reduces the tendency for one leaf to dig into the leaf above it.
