The Skyjacker Leaf Spring for 1968-1972 Chevrolet K20 Suburban is a high-performance suspension component designed to enhance load capacity and ride quality. Constructed from 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 along the entire length of each leaf allows for more flex at the ends, promoting even load distribution and reducing the risk of leaf binding. The bolt-style spring clips eliminate friction points common with other designs, resulting in smoother operation and longer spring life. This advanced construction ensures maximum wheel travel and improved ride comfort, making it an ideal upgrade for off-road or heavy-duty applications.

Designed specifically for 1968-1972 Chevrolet K20 Suburban models, these springs are a direct replacement for stock leaf springs. They are suitable for vehicles used in off-road, towing, or heavy-duty daily driving scenarios, where enhanced load handling and ride stability are required. The kit includes the necessary leaf springs with bolt-style clips for easy installation. Compatibility is limited to the specified year range and vehicle model, ensuring a precise fit and optimal performance. These springs are engineered to provide increased flex, load distribution, and longevity, making them a reliable choice for demanding automotive applications.

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.
