Specially designed to handle the rigors of the Spring-over Samurai. They provide better ride, more articulation, greater durability, and 2" of more lift then the original stock springs. Reversed Wrapped Eyes allow for more arc without excessive lift, and saves the spring from going into a negative arc to compress. This results in a better ride and is the key to durability in spring-over configurations. Anti-frictions pads between each leaf result in smooth deflection and a better ride. Loose clamps are used for more wheel travel and smoother operation through the entire range of articulation. Specially designed military wrapped anti-wrap leaf helps control axle wrap without the need for any traction bar.

Sky YJ Leaf Spring Swap Kits
Why would you swap out your Samurai springs for Jeep YJ Wrangler springs? Simply put, people strive for a better ride and more flex than those rock solid under-sprung old springs.

The YJ swap is one of the most common swaps for Samurai’s because the YJ springs are a 2.5" wide compared to the Samurai’s 2" springs allowing you to abuse them without the worry of tweaking or axle wrap, and second the YJ springs are at least 6 inches longer than the stock Samurai springs. The extra length gives you extreme flex, and of course- a better ride. All you need is a set of used or new Wrangler leaf springs taken from any 1987-1995 YJ’s. Most YJ’s had 4 leaf front and 5 leaf rears to take care of axle wrap. It was not uncommon for some to have 6 leaf springs. You can use any of these springs in the front or rear location.

This kit with stock height YJ springs should give you an additional 2.5 inches of lift from a spring over depending on the condition of the springs. Also can be used in a spring under configuration too.

Front kit is a missing link setup that pushes your front axle 1" forward.

Both kits are fully bolt-on and come with all needed mounting brackets, hardware, shackles, and u-bolt plates.

Crown 5 Layer Stainless Steel Brake Lines
Don’t buy the imitations! When doing suspension lift you reduce the necessary slack needed to get the flex you want. Stretched lines can risk vehicle safety & possibly tear, leak or even burst. Longer brake lines are need for most lift systems done on the Samurai. These lines are simply the most advanced brake lines available. These hoses have virtually no swelling like rubber lines so you stop when you want to. Something that is need when off-roading!

Hose assemblies comply with DOT regulations & are legal in all 50 states. Non-aging Teflon inner core will work with all brake fluids. Stainless steel outer braid provides added protection to the Kevlar and rubberized layers. One-piece crimp design end fittings are super strong & utilize standard brake fitting hardware.

Choose from the four line kit for the dual brake line setup on the 85-88.5 Samurai’s, the Three Line Kit for the single brake line setup of the 88.5-95 Samurai’s, or purchase them individually.

Drive Line Spacers
Adding lift to your Samurai usually over extends the slip yokes on the drive shafts. The easiest and most cost effective fix is adding a drive shaft spacer. Doing so avoids the hassles of making a new drive shaft, which is not only difficult but expensive. The spacer works by attaching between drive shaft flanges. Each kit comes with new bolts, nuts, and lock washers. Unlike other drive shaft spacers on the market, each spacer is double anodized blue for superior corrosion resistance. Plus our zinc plated hardware will not rust like other kits using black oxide.

Each kit comes with new bolts, nuts, and lock washers. Choose from 3/4", 1" and 1 1/4". Specify 86-89 or 90-95.

Note: Although we try our best to keep these in stock, due to the popularity of these spacers, stock issues can arise on some sizes of spacers from time to time. We have found that most customers do not mind, so you may get a non-anodized spacer in place of the blue anodized spacers pictured. Prices are the same. We will try to inform you of this upon order. If this is an issue please let us know if you want to wait for the anodized ones.

Doetsch Tech Shocks
We carry two different Series Shocks, the 3000 Series DT shocks and the 8000 Series.

Doetsch Tech shocks have been used on our Samurai’s because of the right valving- in turn this makes for a better ride due to the light weight characteristics of the Samurai.

The 3000 series shock features multi-stage valving for a smooth comfortable ride on the street and controlled off-road performance and durability, twin tube design, large 1.375 inch piston, cellular closed cell foam, double wall construction for dent resistant failure, double welded for added strength, a baked white enamel finish and polyurethane bushings.

Second is the 8000 series or pre-runner shocks. These are mostly used with heavier engines or extreme suspensions like the quarter elliptical or coil kits. Designed for many years of off-road use. Features high velocity, speed sensitive valving, massive 1.626 inch piston, large .6875 inch chrome shaft, Teflon wiper seal, built in bump stop, double wall construction for dent resistant failure, double welded for added strength, a baked white enamel finish and polyurethane bushings.

Spidertrax Anti-Wrap Kit
The Spidertrax Anti-Wrap Kit is designed to completely eliminate the effects of rear axle wrap, making s-kinked springs history.

The dynamics of this setup not only properly eliminates axle wrap but allows for proper motion of the suspension without binding.

What sets this design aside from the rest? Ladder-bar designs can cause severe suspension bind and can even twist the axle housing. Top axle mounted traction bar designs can actually induce axle wrap and also cause increased squatting under acceleration. The Spidertrax Anti-Wrap Kits simple and effective design make it an ideal modification for any Samurai SPOA suspension.
