The Skyjacker Leaf Spring for 1987-1993 Dodge W350 Pickup is a high-performance suspension component designed to enhance load-carrying capacity and ride quality. Constructed with American steel, these Softride springs feature shot-peened individual leafs, which increase tensile strength and durability. The shot-peening process involves bombarding the steel surface with hard steel pellets at high velocities, compressing the surface and preventing premature wear. The springs utilize bolt-style spring clips, eliminating friction and binding issues common with other designs. Their tapering over the entire length of the leaf creates more flex at the ends, distributing loads evenly and reducing the risk of leaf dig-in, resulting in improved wheel travel and overall ride performance.
Designed to fit 1987-1993 Dodge W350 pickups, these springs are a direct replacement for stock leaf springs on trucks with similar specifications. Suitable for heavy-duty use, including towing and off-road applications, they provide increased durability and load support. Installation involves replacing existing leaf springs with these bolt-on units, ensuring a straightforward upgrade. The kit includes the necessary leaf springs, and no additional modifications are typically required. These springs are ideal for owners seeking enhanced suspension performance, improved ride comfort, and increased longevity for their Dodge W350 trucks.

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.
