I didn't feel like my skyjacker softrides were more streetable. I have called them crapjackers and other vile names on this forum.

But, since I added the 120 pound winch to the tip of the frame horns. The weight has preloaded them a bit and has made the ride a bit more stable.

The front end was too mushy for me. Some like them though.

I am certain I have offended many a crapjacker softride owner here.

It is actually riding pretty good right now with the stock 3/4 ton springs from the eaton hooked to a 4" ORD shackle flip and the loaded down 4" skyjackers in the front.

So I've calmed my skyjacker softride bashing, but I do plane to replace them.
