Skyjacker Suspension Steering

Skyjacker Suspension: Five Decades of Off-Road Engineering

Few names carry as much weight in the off-road world as Skyjacker Suspension. Founded in 1974 and headquartered in West Monroe, Louisiana, Skyjacker has spent more than 50 years engineering suspension components that take trucks, SUVs, and Jeeps to terrain most vehicles wouldn't dare attempt. What started as a passion for off-roading has grown into a family legacy — with three generations of the founding family still actively involved in the company today, guiding every product decision with the same relentless drive that sparked the brand's creation.

Skyjacker's philosophy is straightforward: design it right, test it hard, and never stop improving. Their motto, "we test where you ride," is more than a tagline — every new product undergoes extensive real-world field testing on demanding terrain before it ever reaches a customer. That commitment to validation is why off-road enthusiasts have trusted the brand for decades.

A Complete Suspension Ecosystem

At the core of Skyjacker's catalog are their renowned Suspension Lift Kits — meticulously engineered systems designed to increase ground clearance and accommodate larger tires without sacrificing the ride quality or handling drivers expect on the street. Available in a wide range of lift heights for 2WD and 4WD vehicles, these kits come complete with all necessary hardware and installation instructions, making them a favorite for both seasoned builders and first-time upgraders.

The springs at the heart of these systems are equally impressive. Skyjacker's Leaf Springs feature the brand's proprietary Softride® technology — individual leafs are shot-peened with hard steel pellets at high velocity, compressing the surface of the steel to increase tensile strength. Tapered leaf ends distribute loads more evenly, while Teflon® wear pads between leafs eliminate friction and binding. For coil-sprung platforms, Skyjacker's Coil Springs are manufactured from 5160H chromium alloy steel and also undergo shot-peening to maximize strength and service life — with a lifetime warranty that reflects confidence in the product.

Complementing these spring systems is Skyjacker's full lineup of ride-control components. Their Steering Damper Kits — available in multiple series including the Hydro 7000, Silver 9000, ADX, and Black MAX — reduce road vibration and improve steering response, which is especially critical on lifted trucks running larger tires. Rounding out the system, Skyjacker's Shock Absorbers are engineered to match specific applications, with options ranging from the budget-friendly Hydro and Nitro series to the race-inspired ADX 2.0 remote reservoir monotube shocks featuring an Internal Floating Piston (IFP) that separates nitrogen gas from oil for consistent damping under the most punishing conditions.

Built for Trucks, Jeeps, and True Off-Road Enthusiasts

Skyjacker builds fitment-specific solutions for most major platforms — Jeep Wrangler, Ford F-Series, GM trucks, Ram, and Toyota — ensuring that every kit is dialed in for the geometry and demands of that particular vehicle. Whether you're building a capable trail rig or simply want a more commanding stance on your daily driver, Skyjacker offers a suspension solution engineered to perform, engineered to last, and backed by a brand whose entire identity is rooted in off-road passion.
