just installed readylift leveling kit

this is a GREAT kit! includes a drop bracket(decreases bump steer by keeping track bar and drag link parallel), includes bump stop extensions(to prevent over travel of axle, pulling on sway bar links, popping bushing out or bracket), includes shock extensions(means you keep stock shocks), includes spacer for driveshaft carrier bearing, etc. i removed the revtek kit that had all these problems listed above. I LOVE THIS KIT!!

Is this the Readylift SST Leveling Kit that you installed? That is the kit that I want to stick on my truck...how about some pics of your truck!! Did you do the install yourself or did you have it installed by a shop?

I wish I could tell you how to upload pic's, but I have never done it myself so I am probably not the guy to help out here. Maybe someone else will chime in here and help. Was this the Readylift kit with the trackbar bracket that you installed? Thanks.

do they make a kit similar to the one you installed with all the drop brackets and etc... for a leaf spring truck? My '04 has leafs, not coils. Because if they do, that's what I want. That kit looks sweet with all the brackets and etc!

did they drop both the track bar AND the drag link? if not then you've made the steering worse because now the two aren't traveling in the same arc of motion. You have to either drop both or extend both, can't do a combination thereof.

track bar drop bracket only. the geometry of the suspension only requires a track bar drop bracket to make the darg link and track bar parallel and to put both pieces back into the same travel arc. if it was a lift kit of 4
' or more a drop pitman arm would be required as well.

SST 3.5 Ready Lift

Just got done with my 3.5 SST Ready Lift on my 08. I was very impressed with their kit. Only complaint I have is they could have come up with a bracket for the ABS line. It drives great, I didnt even notice a difference, altho I am still going to get it re-aligned, but I will wait until I get the 35's on. I put pics in the member photos, click on my photos to the left.

What did they do to fix the lost castor the lift gave you?
