Description:
NEW PRODUCT--Lifting a new 2009-2012 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD both in front and in the rear is an excellent way to achieve that "Ram Tough" look. ReadyLift® SST Hybrid Lift Kits are the fastest, safest, least expensive way to mildly lift your vehicle at both ends. ReadyLift® SST Hybrid Lift Kits go one step beyondThe ReadyLift®'s popular front leveling kits by providing the vehicle owner with the ability to lift the truck in the front and rear while maintaining a slight rake for towing or hauling. The unique design of the 09-11 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD suspension allowsThe ReadyLift®'s innovative Smart Strut Technology mounts to fit right on top of both the front and rear struts. Unlike urethane spacer kits that compress the springs and deteriorate over time, the ReadyLift® SST Mild Lift Kit for the 09-12 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD feature all-steel construction designed to last the life of the vehicle.
The NEW 69-1030 Dodge Ram 1500 lift kit features a pair of steel construction front strut extensions and a pair of rear suspension strut extensions also constructed from strong, durable steel. This kit is designed specifically for the new Dodge Ram trucks. These strong strut extensions provides 2.5" of lift from stock in the front and 1.5" of lift in the rear. This creates a mild lifted stance slightly beyond level and includes a slight rake which is ideal for towing and hauling. This lift also allows the 2009 Dodge truck owner to install up to 35" tall off road tires without concern for clearance issues. ReadyLift® strut extensions will maintain a smooth OEM ride without adding pressure to stock suspension components, guaranteed!
The 69-1030 kit also includes droop limiting bump stops and extensions designed to prevent the operator from over-extending the droop cycle that can occur during aggressive driving.
Installation is simple and requires no strut preloading, cutting, or modification of factory installed parts. While other kits cost thousands to buy and hours to install, ReadyLift® can be installed in about two-three hours.
ReadyLift® Lifetime Warranty Included! All ReadyLift® products are backed by a lifetime warranty for as long as you own your vehicle and includes all necessary parts, hardware, detailed installation instructions, and two color decals.

Due to a design issue with Dodge Ram front differential and suspension, some owners may experience a vibration in the front end when in 4x4 mode, or a violent shaking vibration of the front wheels when going over a bump at speed. These two symptoms are often called a "death wobble", but actually appear to be two different problems with the Ram truck.
The 4HI mode vibration is a vibration or shudder that occurs when accelerating in 4x4 high mode. This affects Dodge Ram 1500 non mega cabs, Dodge couldn't discover why their stock trucks would do this for some customers. The solution for Dodge was to state that there is no problem and that all of the new Rams will shudder or shake when in 4x4 high. This symptom appears isolated to 2006-2011 1500 non-Mega Cab model trucks and when in 4-hi mode.
It is ReadyLift® Suspension's position that if you have installed a lift kit onto your Dodge Ram truck and experience either of the two symptoms mentioned, you have two options. 1). IMMEDIATELY HAVE THE LEVELING KIT REMOVED FROM THE VEHICLE! or 2). Install KORE High Angle CV Joints which will fix the factory issue.

Not everyone wants a monster truck that won't fit into the local mall's underground parking lot. Ready Lift has built its whole reputation on the fact that a lot of us would like it if our trucks were just a little bit taller and still rode like the factory intended. The company offers leveling kits that raise the front suspension of your truck or SUV to be even with the rear, and mild front and rear lift kits are available for select vehicles. In all cases, the factory ride is preserved due to the company's unique suspension and shock spacers, giving the vehicle owner a great looking truck that is still comfortable around town, all for a very reasonable price.
Q: What is a suspension lift kit? Why buy one? How does a suspension lift differ from a leveling lift, and how does either of those differ from a body lift?
A: There are many ways that you can lift your vehicle. The most common forms include suspension lift kits, leveling lift kits and body lift kits. A suspension lift kit is a means of raising your truck, SUV or Jeep by utilizing suspension components such as taller springs and longer shock absorbers. Leveling kits utilize helper springs or spacers in order to boost the ride height on only one end of your rig so that it rides with a level stance and potentially can clear larger tires. Body lift kits gain clearance at the wheel wells to fit larger tires by using spacers between the body of the vehicle and the frame. With the body sitting higher away from the frame there is more room for big wheels and tires, however the actual ground clearance underneath the vehicle remains unchanged. Although the priciest of these options, a suspension lift kit is the most complete, and for most situations ideal, form of lift for your rig. By incorporating new springs and usually shocks, you not only gain lift, but you have the correct spring rates and shock valving to match the lift. Usually people add lift to their rides in order to clear larger tires for off road use. Larger tires are heavier and so require different suspension settings. With a complete suspension lift kit you will have the right equipment to work with your heavy duty tires so you can worry less about unsafe handling and focus instead on where your next adventure will be. Many of these kits also come with longer brake lines and custom steering linkage to compensate for the added lift. Another nice thing about suspension lift kits is that not only do you gain clearance for bigger rubber, but you also gain ground clearance under the vehicle so that you are less likely to hit rocks or get high-centered when driving off road. As with all lift kits, when you raise your rig, the center of gravity also moves higher so be sure to drive with caution as there is an increased risk of rollover.
Q: What is a complete lift kit? Why buy one? What parts do complete lift kits normally come with? Do complete lift kits ever vary in terms of part composition?
A: Complete lift kits come with all the necessary components to lift your vehicle’s ride height. If you are looking to gain clearance under your vehicle for rough roads or get some extra wheel well space for larger wheels and tires, complete lift kits are the absolute best way to go because it is essentially one stop shopping. With a complete lift kit you can gain the clearance you need to drive on the trails and will give your rig an aggressive new look at the same time that is sure to turn heads as you drive down the road. So whether you are after the right look or need some additional function from your truck, we highly recommend complete lift kits.
Normally if you are dealing with a complete suspension lift kit this means you will get four new lift springs, mounting hardware, bushings and shock absorbers to match your new springs all in one kit. If it is a body lift kit this means all the appropriate spacers, bushings and hardware to complete the lift. If it is a shackle lift the kit will include shackles, bushings and hardware. However, there is often variation between brands on what is included in a complete lift kit. For example some kits may include extended brake lines or longer shackles in the package in addition to springs, shocks and hardware. On the other hand some companies require you to buy extended brake lines or even shock absorbers separately and only include the basic springs and hardware in the kits. Be sure to look carefully at what is included in each kit and shop accordingly. If one kit is noticeably cheaper than another there is probably a good reason; it may not include all of the same components.
