Please read Instructions thoroughly and completely before beginning installation.
Installation by a certified mechanic is recommended.
ReadyLIFT® Off Road Suspension is NOT responsible for any damage or failure resulting from improper instal-
lation .
Safety Warning: 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 roll-
over 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® Off Road
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 vehi-
cle before the purchase and installation of any ReadyLIFT® products. It is the responsibility of the driver/s to check their sur-
rounding area for obstructions, people, and animals before moving the vehicle. All raised vehicles have increased blind spots
and 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 prop-
erly 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 respon-
sible to insure a safe and controllable vehicle after performing modifications.
ReadyLIFT® Off Road 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, or as referenced in the torque specification list provided in these
instructions.
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.
