More Information

The Skyjacker C160AK 6-Inch Suspension Lift Kit for 1973-1986 GMC Jimmy 4WD SUVs is designed to provide substantial ground clearance, increased tire clearance, and the classic tall stance of a lifted square-body Chevy. Built around heavy-duty replacement front leaf springs and proven suspension components, this system provides 6 inches of lift with clearance for up to 37x12.50 tires. Multiple Skyjacker shock options allow the suspension to be configured around the desired ride and performance characteristics.

The front suspension utilizes replacement leaf springs to achieve the increased ride height, while the rear is raised using lift blocks and new U-bolts. Front and rear U-bolt kits and leaf spring bushings are included to provide the necessary mounting components for the lift. Brake line brackets are also supplied to accommodate the increased suspension height. The system is designed for installation without cutting or welding, providing a comprehensive suspension upgrade for classic GMC Jimmy.

Available shock configurations include Skyjacker Black MAX shocks for dependable everyday performance, Hydro 7000 hydraulic shocks for smooth and controlled damping, Nitro 8000 nitrogen-charged shocks for increased control, and M95 monotube shocks for enhanced damping consistency and heat management. With its 6-inch lift height and heavy-duty leaf-spring-based design, the C160AK provides the clearance and suspension capability needed to transform the stance and functionality of a classic Jimmy.
