3. Notes importants
3.1 Vehicle Fitment
This lift leveling kit is specifically designed for:
- Toyota Tundra 2022-2024 2WD/4WD
3.2 Lift Height vs. Spacer Thickness
It is important to understand that the actual lift height achieved may not be a 1:1 ratio with the spacer thickness due to vehicle suspension geometry. The spacer alters the angle of the lower control arm, which results in an additional lift beyond the physical thickness of the spacer itself.

3.3 Material Construction
The components of this kit are manufactured from high tensile strength carbon steel, ensuring durability and reliability. A powder-coated surface provides anti-corrosion properties for extended product life.

3.4 Tire Recommendation
After installation, the maximum recommended tire diameter is 35 cm x 11.50 cm.
4. Configuració i instal·lació
Es recomana una instal·lació professional. Improper installation can lead to vehicle damage, loss of control, and serious injury. If you are not experienced with vehicle suspension work, consult a qualified mechanic.
4.1 Precaucions de seguretat
- Utilitzeu sempre l'equip de protecció individual adequat, inclosa la protecció ocular.
- Ensure the vehicle is on a flat, stable surface.
- Use sturdy jack stands to support the vehicle after lifting. Never rely solely on a jack.
- Chock the wheels that remain on the ground to prevent movement.
- Disconnect the battery's negative terminal before starting work.
- No treballeu sota un vehicle suportat només per un gat.
4.2 Passos generals d'instal·lació (més amunt)view)
Aquesta secció ofereix una descripció generalview. Specific torque specifications and detailed steps should be followed from a comprehensive service manual for your vehicle model.
- Preparar el vehicle: Lift the front or rear of the vehicle and support it securely with jack stands. Remove the wheels.
- Disassemble Suspension: Carefully disconnect necessary suspension components (e.g., sway bar links, brake lines, ABS lines, lower control arm, shock/strut assembly) to allow for removal of the factory spring/strut.
- Instal·leu els separadors:
- Davant: Install the front strut spacers between the top of the factory strut assembly and the vehicle's frame. Ensure proper orientation and secure with provided hardware.

- posterior: Install the rear spring spacers on top of the rear coil springs. Install the rear shock extenders to compensate for the increased ride height.
- Torneu a muntar: Reconnect all disconnected suspension components. Ensure all bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque values.
- Comprovacions finals: Reinstall wheels, lower the vehicle, and perform a final inspection of all connections.
5. Funcionament
After installation, your vehicle will have increased ground clearance. It is crucial to understand that vehicle handling characteristics may change. Drive cautiously until you become accustomed to the new ride height.

5.1 Post-Installation Alignment
Immediately after installing the lift kit, a professional wheel alignment is mandatory. Lifting a vehicle alters its suspension geometry, which can negatively impact steering, tire wear, and overall safety if not corrected.
6. Manteniment
Regular inspection and maintenance are essential to ensure the longevity and safety of your lift kit components.
- Initial Re-torque: After the first 50-100 miles of driving, re-torque all fasteners installed or loosened during the lift kit installation to the manufacturer's specifications.
- Inspecció periòdica: Every 3,000-5,000 miles (or during routine vehicle service), inspect all lift kit components for signs of wear, damage, or loose fasteners. Pay close attention to bolts, nuts, and the spacers themselves.
- Neteja: Keep the suspension components free from excessive dirt, mud, and corrosive materials.
7. Solució De Problemes
If you encounter any issues after installation, consider the following:
- Alçada de conducció desigual: Double-check that the correct spacers are installed on the correct side (front/rear) and that all components are seated properly. Ensure all fasteners are torqued correctly.
- Unusual Noises (Clunking, Squeaking): This often indicates loose hardware or components rubbing. Re-inspect all connections and ensure adequate clearance between moving parts.
- Steering or Handling Issues: A professional wheel alignment is critical after installation. If issues persist after alignment, have a qualified mechanic inspect the entire suspension system.
- Tire Rubbing: Verify tire size is within recommended limits. Check for proper wheel offset.
For persistent issues, it is recommended to consult a professional automotive technician.
