relocating brackets to the frame using four 
7/16" x 1 1/2" bolts, 7/16" washers and 7/16" 
nylock nuts. Tighten all rear bumper mounting 
hardware securely. Reconnect the license 
plate lights to the

 

rear bumper 

 
32. Place the warning sticker on the vehicle 
dash in plain sight of all vehicle occupants. 
 

CAUTION

 

All fasteners should be retorqued after 500 
miles and after off road use.  All body lift 
components should be visually inspected and 
fasteners retorqued during routine vehicle 
servicing. 

 
33. Double-check the vehicle. Reinstall the air 
bag fuse. Reconnect both battery cables. Be 
sure to connect the positive cable first, then 
the negative cable. Check all wires, hoses, 
cables, etc. to be sure that there is ample 
slack. Double check the fan to fan-shroud 
clearance. Be sure that the fan cannot make 
contact with the shroud. Check the radiator 
hoses to be sure that they are not contacting 
any moving parts (such as the fan or lower 
pulley assembly). Be sure that all hardware 
has been tightened properly. Check the entire 
engine compartment for anything that looks 
unusual.  If the radiator was removed earlier 
remove the radiator cap so the radiator can be 
refilled once the vehicle has reached normal 
operating temperature. Start the vehicle. 
Check the steering. Turn the wheel all the way 
to the left and all the way to the right. Be sure 
that there is no binding.  Check the clutch 
operation. Check the manual transmission 
shift lever operation. Be sure that it engages in 
all gears. Check the automatic transmission 
shift lever operation. Check the 4-wheel drive 
shift lever operation. Once the engine has 
reached normal operating temperature, top off 
the coolant level and install the radiator cap. 
Be sure that the overflow tank is filled to the 
proper level. Check the transmission fluid 
level. Be sure that the fluid is filled to the 
proper level. Test-drive the vehicle in all gears 
and 4 wheel drive ranges. Check all mounting 
hardware in 500 miles and as part of your 
regular maintenance schedule. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

CAUTION 

Performance Accessories does not 
recommend any particular wheel and tire 
combinations for use with its body lifts and can 
not assume responsibility for the customers 
choice of wheels and tires.  Your owner's 
manual can be referenced for recommended 
tire sizes and warnings related to the use of 
oversized tires.  Larger wheel and tire 
combinations increase stress and wear on 
steering and suspension components, which 
leads to increased maintenance and higher 
risk for component failure.  Larger wheel and 
tire combinations also alter speedometer 
calibration, braking effectiveness, center of 
gravity, and handling characteristics.  Consult 
with an experienced local off road shop to find 
what wheel and tire combinations work best 
with your vehicle.

The vehicle owner must retain all warranty 
information, instruction sheets, and other
