Confident Lift Height for Classic GM Suburban Duty
Suburbans carry more weight and a longer wheelbase than pickups, and the Skyjacker SKYC260AKSS-N is engineered around that difference. This 6 inch suspension system is built specifically for 1969 to 1972 Chevrolet and GMC Suburban models, combining new front leaf springs and U-bolt kits with Nitro shocks tuned for the added mass of a full size SUV. The SKYC260AKSS-N corrects pinion angle and preserves steering geometry at the taller ride height, giving these classic Suburbans the ground clearance for larger tires without sacrificing the load carrying stability the platform is known for. Every SKYC260AKSS-N kit ships with the hardware needed for a complete front and rear installation.
