The Skyjacker Leaf Spring for 1967-1973 Chevrolet K10 Pickup is a high-performance suspension component designed to enhance load capacity and ride quality. 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 durability. The tapering design throughout the length of the leaf creates more flex at the ends, promoting even load distribution and reducing the risk of leaf binding. The bolt-style spring clips eliminate friction, ensuring smoother operation and longer spring life. These springs are engineered to maximize wheel travel and improve overall suspension performance, making them suitable for demanding off-road or heavy-duty applications.

Designed specifically for 1967-1973 Chevrolet K10 pickups, these springs are a direct replacement for the stock leaf springs on trucks with similar specifications. They are ideal for off-road use, heavy hauling, or daily driving where enhanced durability and ride comfort are desired. The kit includes the necessary leaf springs and mounting hardware for straightforward installation. Compatible with vehicles equipped with the original chassis and suspension setup, these springs provide a reliable upgrade to improve load handling and suspension response without sacrificing ride quality or longevity.

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.
