244-19620-IM-AA

READ INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY AND COMPLETELY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION.

INSTALLATION BY A CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL MECHANIC IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

READYLIFT® IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE OR FAILURE RESULTING FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION.

Safety Warning

MISUSE OF THIS PRODUCT COULD LEAD TO INJURY OR DEATH.

Suspension systems or components that enhance the on and off-road performance of your vehicle may cause

it to handle differently than it did from the factory. Extreme care must be used to prevent loss of control or

vehicle rollover during abrupt maneuvers.

Always operate your vehicle at reduced speeds to ensure your ability to control your vehicle under all driving

conditions. Failure to drive safely may result in serious injury or death to driver and passengers.

Driver and passengers must ALWAYS wear your seat belts, avoid quick sharp turns and other sudden

maneuvers. ReadyLIFT Suspension does not recommend the combined use of suspension lifts, body lifts, or

other lifting devices.

You should never operate your vehicle under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Constant maintenance is required to keep your vehicle safe. Thoroughly inspect your vehicle before and after

every off-road use.

It is the responsibility of the retailer and/or the installer to review all state and local laws, with the end user

of this product, related to bumper height laws and the lifting of their vehicle before the purchase and

installation of any ReadyLIFT products.

It is the responsibility of the driver/s to check their surrounding area for obstructions, people, and animals

before moving the vehicle.

All raised vehicles have increased blind spots; damage, injury and/or death can occur if these instructions are

not followed.

Installation Warning

All steps and procedures described in these instructions were performed while the vehicle was properly

supported on a two post vehicle lift with safety jacks.

Use caution during all disassembly and assembly steps to insure suspension components are not over

extended causing damage to any vehicle components and parts included in this kit.

Included instructions are guidelines only for recommended procedures and are not meant to be definitive.

Installer is responsible to insure a safe and controllable vehicle after performing modifications.

ReadyLIFT Suspension recommends the use of an OE Service Manual for model/year of vehicle when

disassembly and assembly of factory and related components.

Unless otherwise specified, tighten all bolts and fasteners to standard torque specifications listed within the

OE Service Manual.

Suspension components that use rubber or urethane bushings should be tightened with the vehicle at normal

ride height. This will prevent premature wear or failure of the bushing and maintain ride comfort.

Larger tire and wheel combinations may increase leverage on suspension, steering, and related components.

Due to payload options and initial ride height variances, the amount of lift is a base figure. Final ride height

dimensions may vary in accordance to original vehicle ride height. Always measure the vehicle ride height

prior to beginning installation.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Kit not compatible with aftermarket lift struts or other lift systems.

Use of additional lift components may damage vehicle.

DOES NOT FIT

Vehicles equipped with factory lifts (Off-Road or Rebel Package)

Vehicles equipped with springs and struts.

Vehicles equipped with EcoDiesel.

This suspension system was developed using a 37x12.5” tire with 20x9 wheel and a

offset of 0mm. If wider tires are used, offset wheels may be necessary and trimming

may be required. Factory wheels can be used but are not recommended with tires

over 11.5” wide.

The stock spare rim can be run in an emergency - exercise extreme caution under

stock spare tire operating conditions. Please note that, if running the spare factory

tire, it is done for short distances and a speed not to exceed 45mph or damage to

differentials may occur.

A lifted vehicle may have different headlight aim performance. ReadyLIFT

recommends marking and recording the headlight beam position before kit installation

and then adjusting, if necessary, the headlamps to the same height settings after kit

installation. Set the vehicle on a level surface 10' to 15’ from a solid wall or garage

door. (This is a general distance with some manufacturers requiring different

distances.) Note the top height of the low beam's bright spot, the top of the most

intense part of the beam, for driver and passenger side. Height may vary from side

to side. Repeat this procedure and adjust after lift kit is installed. Adjust if the aim is

off by turning the adjusters gradually (a quarter of a turn) and looking to see where

the new alignment falls. It may be easier to block one headlamp while adjusting the

other. Consult the owner operation manual for procedures to adjust headlights -

many automakers offer headlight aiming specs. Some states have their own

specifications when it comes to headlight aim, so it’s best to follow those rules when

alighting headlights.

SAEJ2492 Warning

By installing this product, you acknowledge that the suspension of this vehicle has been modified.

As a result, this vehicle may handle differently than that of factory-equipped vehicles. As with any

vehicle, extreme care must be used to prevent loss of control or roll-over during sharp turns or

abrupt maneuvers. Always wear seat belts, and drive safely, recognizing that reduced speeds and

specialized driving techniques may be required. Failure to drive this vehicle safely may result in

serious injury or death. Do not drive this vehicle unless you are familiar with its unique handling

characteristics and are confident of your ability to maintain control under all driving conditions.

Some modifications (and combinations of modifications) are not recommended and may not be

permitted in your state. Consult your owner’s manual, the instructions accompanying this product,

and state laws before undertaking these modifications. You are responsible for the legality and

safety of the vehicle you modify using these components.

Before starting installation:

ReadyLIFT Suspension highly recommends that the installation of this

product be performed by a professional mechanic with experience working on and installing suspension

products. Professional knowledge and skill will typically yield the best installation results. If you need an

installer in your area, please contact ReadyLIFT Suspension Customer Service to find one of our “Pro-

Grade” Dealers.

INSTALLATION BY A PROFESSIONAL IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

• A Factory Service Manual for your specific Year / Make / Model is highly recommended for reference

during installation.

• All lifted vehicles may require additional driveline modifications and / or balancing.

• A vehicle alignment is REQUIRED after installation of this product.

• Speedometer / Computer recalibration is required if changing +/- 10% from factory tire diameter.

• A vehicle lift or hoist greatly reduces installation time. Installation time estimates are based on an

available vehicle hoist.

• Vehicle must be in excellent operating condition. Repair or replace any and all worn or damaged

components prior to installation.

RECORD HEAD LAMP MEASURMENTS

Pre Installation Measurements

It is imperative that you record the following measurements and factory components.

ReadyLIFT test and records as much data from each application as possible. Vehicle

manufactures may change components or add models with different options. By

recording and not exceeding the fender to hub center that ReadyLIFT call out will

ensure the lift on your vehicle is correct. This measurements and components will

effect the completion of this lift kit. Failure to do so may result in over lifting, causing

premature failure of axles, CV boots and drivetrain. Over lifting a vehicle will also

result in a incorrect wheel alignment. This will wear tires incorrectly inside or outside

edge. An Incorrect alignment will cause poor vehicle handling issue such as under

steer. Over lifting will also cause a shock top off condition, creating poor ride quality

and pops and clunks prematurely wearing components. Failure to adjust head lamps

may cause dangerous driving conditions for you and other drivers on the road. Record

the head lamp position before the installation of this lift or leveling kit and adjusting

to factory position after the completion will ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
