The year is 1974. Blazing Saddles tops the box office and The Loco-Motion plays on the radio. Meanwhile in Louisiana, Lonnie McCurry started Skyjacker Suspension to cater to mud boggers and provide lifted suspensions to fit larger tires. Fifty years later, Skyjacker has proven more enduring than Grand Funk Railroad and Mel Brooks.
The company now caters not only to mud boggers but to rock crawlers, overlanders, and anyone looking for well-engineered suspension components for their vehicle at a reasonable price. And, unlike so many other manufacturers that have been gobbled up by venture capital firms, Skyjacker is still owned by the McCurry family.
