COMPLETE INSTALLATION BY CAREFULLY INSPECTING AND
CONFIRMING CLEARANCE OF CHOSEN TIRE/WHEELS THROUGH
FULL STEERING SWEEP AND SUSPENSION TRAVEL. ASSURE
BRAKE LINES CLEAR AND NOT RUBBING AGAINST ANY
SURFACE, ABS FITTING AND OTHER FASTENERS SECURED.
CHECK SPEEDOMETER READINGS AND IF NECESSARY
RECALIBRATE. HAVE ALIGNMENT SETTINGS CHECKED AND IF
INDICATED, RE-ALIGN AT SHOP WITH EQUIPMENT SUITED FOR
MODIFIED SUSPENSION JEEP VEHICLES.
INSTALL COCKPIT WARNING STICKER ON VISOR OR
OTHER LOCATION VISIBLE TO ALL DRIVERS.
Install cockpit
warning sticker
on visor or other
location visible
to all drivers
and occupants.
Only once the vehicle is on the ground
with all weight on both axles and all four
the tires may you now fully torque all
front and rear hardware to specifications.
A professional alignment is recommended
after lift kit installation but you will need
to get the steering wheel close to center
to prevent ESP warnings until you do so.
Slowly Drive the vehicle a few feet in a
straight line so you know the tires are
straight. The steering wheel should
be off-center.
