Chevy/GMC 2WD, 4WD Body Lift Installation Instructions
This body lift kit should only be installed on vehicles in good working condition. Before installation, the vehicle should be thoroughly inspected for evidence of corrosion or deformation of the sheet metal around the factory body mounts. This body lift kit should not be installed on any vehicle that is suspected to have been in a collision or misused. Off-road use of your vehicle with this body lift installed may increase the stress applied to the factory body mounts. We do not recommend that any vehicle with a body lift installed be involved in any extreme off-road maneuvers such as jumping. Failure to observe this warning may result in serious personal injury and/or severe damage to your vehicle.
1. Read the instructions completely and carefully before you begin. Check kit for proper contents (refer to parts list and picture diagrams).
2. Park the vehicle on a clean, dry, flat (level) surface. Block the tires so the vehicle cannot roll in either direction. Automatic transmissions should be placed in park. Manual transmissions should be placed in neutral.
3. Remove both battery cables. Be sure to remove the negative cable first, then the positive cable.
4. Remove the front bumper. Check for any wires that may be connected to the bumper and disconnect as necessary. Make a diagram to ensure proper reconnection when the front bumper is reinstalled.
5. Drain the radiator into a clean container. Be sure that the vehicle has cooled sufficiently to allow the cooling system to be safely opened. The coolant will be reused after the lifting operation is complete. Remove the clamp that mounts the upper radiator hose to the radiator. Remove the hose from the radiator. Remove the clamp that mounts the lower radiator hose to the radiator. Remove the lower hose from the radiator. If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic transmission, disconnect the 2 transmission cooling lines from the radiator. Cap the ends of the lines to prevent loss of transmission fluid while completing the installation. Remove the bolts that mount the upper radiator cover to the core support. Remove the radiator and the fan shroud from the vehicle.
