Overview

Before you buy
Adjustable control arms take over the job of locating the axle, so their setting decides how the axle sits under the truck. Once the arms are adjusted, the caster, the pinion angle and the toe all need attention. Driveline vibration often shows up after a lift that changes the pinion angle, so a driveline check belongs in the install plan rather than after a problem appears.
Shock length is the other item to plan for. A higher ride height extends the shock travel needed, and a shock that is too short will bottom out on the trail. Check the brake lines and bump stops against the new height, and inspect the ball joints and bushings for wear at the first service.
- Inspect ball joints and bushings at each oil change
- Recheck alignment after the first few drives
- Re-torque fasteners after the first trail outing
