How to Lift a Jeep Suspension

Adding a lift kit to your Jeep suspension not only adds to the durability of the vehicle, especially if you plan to four wheel, or off-road it, but also adds to the style and the "wow" factor of your Jeep.

Instructions

1

Gather your Jeep information. This should include the make, model, year, and suspension style of your Jeep. You may also want to make a note of the engine size and type, as well as any other under the chassis modifications that have been made.

2

Find the right lift kit for your Jeep and style. Shop online or visit a local customizing or 4X4 shop to find the right lift kit for your Jeep and the height you are looking for. Rubicon Express is one of the industry's most well-known manufacturers of Jeep suspensions and lift kits. Their comprehensive online store will help you see exactly what is in the kit and make sure you are getting the right kit for your Jeep.

3

Install according to kit directions, with assistance from your Jeep repair manual. The lift kit will have comprehensive instructions to follow that will also list all the necessary tools. Have your Jeep repair manual handy in case you have any problems with disassembling and inspecting the stock, or current, suspension system.

4

Consider a professional installation. If you find you are having trouble with the installation, consider a professional suspension or customization person to help with the lift. You want to ensure it is going together correctly and safely. It may be worth the money for the assistance.
