whats wrong with skyjacker?

SkyJacker springs are a decent entry level, cheap, spring but the ride quality sucks on the street, and doesn't flex for crap offroad. (First hand experience) I've about been on my lid so many times of these springs not flexing. It all depends of what you want to do with your rig. If your looking to go rock crawling, you're going to want to look for a set of trail gear, marlin crawler, RUFs, or an all pro spring that will help keep all 4 tires on the ground.
