More Information

The Skyjacker C225AK 2.5-Inch Suspension Lift Kit for 1969-1972 GMC Jimmy 4WD models increases ground clearance, improves tire clearance, and provides a more capable lifted stance while retaining the classic leaf-spring suspension layout. The system includes Skyjacker Softride front leaf springs, 2-inch tapered rear lift blocks, front and rear U-bolt kits, suspension bushings, and supporting hardware. Shock options include no shocks, Hydro 7000 shocks, Nitro 8000 shocks, BlackMAX shocks, or M95 shocks, letting you match the package to your ride and damping preferences.

Skyjacker 2.5-inch Softride front leaf springs replace the factory front spring packs to increase ride height while maintaining controlled suspension movement and useful articulation. The spring design balances added clearance with predictable street manners and off-road flexibility. At the rear, 2-inch tapered lift blocks raise the factory leaf-spring suspension to complement the increased front height and create a balanced front-to-rear stance.

Front and rear U-bolt kits secure the lifted suspension components to the axles, while the included bushing components support smooth and controlled leaf-spring movement at the mounting points. The C225AK provides clearance for tire sizes up to 34x12.50 with properly configured wheels, making it a practical suspension upgrade for classic GMC Jimmy models built around larger tires, increased ground clearance, and improved trail capability.

You can order the C225AK without shocks or with Skyjacker Hydro 7000, Nitro 8000, BlackMAX, or M95 shocks. Hydro 7000 shocks use velocity-sensitive hydraulic damping for smooth and predictable ride control, while Nitro 8000 shocks feature a 150 PSI gas-charged design for more responsive damping. BlackMAX shocks use advanced foam-cell hydraulic technology for consistent performance, while M95 shocks feature a 200 PSI gas-charged monotube design with an internal floating piston for more consistent damping and efficient heat management. These options let you tailor the 2.5-inch lift system for street driving, recreational trail use, or more demanding off-road applications.
