Softride Comfort for the Classic Ramcharger
The Skyjacker D800S is a Softride leaf spring built for 1974 to 1993 Dodge Ramcharger models, giving owners a comfortable ride while adding lift for larger tires. Skyjacker designs the Softride spring with a progressive multi leaf pack that flexes smoothly over small bumps yet firms up under load, avoiding the harsh ride common with stiffer aftermarket lift springs. The D800S replaces the factory front leaf spring and is engineered to work in concert with Skyjacker shocks and other Ramcharger lift components for a balanced overall setup. Ramcharger owners restoring or upgrading their rig for off road use rely on the D800S to gain clearance without giving up daily drivability. Each spring is manufactured to Skyjacker specifications for consistent arch and load rating.
