Lift Kit Suspension Check Services

Protect Your Lifted Truck or SUV With Professional Suspension Inspections

A lift kit dramatically changes your vehicle’s suspension geometry, performance, and stress points. That’s why routine lift kit suspension checks are essential for safety, handling, and long-term durability. At our shop, we specialize in inspecting, diagnosing, and maintaining lifted suspension systems—from leveling kits to high-clearance full suspension lifts.

Why Lifted Vehicles Need Regular Suspension Checks

When you install a lift kit, your suspension and steering components work harder than they did at factory height. Without routine inspections, this can lead to:

• Premature wear of ball joints, bushings, and tie rods
• Increased stress on control arms and shocks
• Alignment issues and uneven tire wear
• Clunks, vibrations, or poor steering control
• Safety risks if bolts loosen over time

Whether you drive your lifted truck daily or take it off-road, regular checks help prevent breakdowns, protect your investment, and keep your vehicle performing its best.

What’s Included in Our Lift Kit Suspension Check

Our inspection goes far beyond a standard suspension check. We evaluate each component of your lifted system, ensuring everything is secure, aligned, and functioning properly.

✔ Lift Kit Hardware & Torque Check

Bolts, brackets, and mounts can loosen over time—especially after installation or off-road use. We re-torque and secure all lift components to manufacturer specifications.

✔ Control Arm & Ball Joint Inspection

Lifted geometry can place added stress on upper and lower control arms. We inspect for:

• Ball joint wear
• Binding
• Incorrect angles
• Cracked bushings

✔ Shock & Strut Condition

We check for:

• Leaking shocks
• Weak rebound/damping
• Improper travel length
• Damage from off-road impacts

Upgraded shocks like Fox, Bilstein, or Rough Country? We evaluate those too.

✔ Steering Components & Linkage Check

Lifted trucks often need upgraded steering parts. We inspect:

• Tie rods
• Drag links
• Pitman arms
• Steering stabilizers
• Rack and pinion stress points

✔ Driveshaft & Driveline Angles

Lifting a vehicle changes pinion angles and driveshaft geometry. We look for:

• Binding
• Vibration
• U-joint wear
• Carrier bearing stress

✔ Brake Line & ABS Wire Clearance

Lift kits sometimes stretch or reposition brake components. We check for rubbing, tension, or potential failure points.

✔ Alignment Review

We evaluate current alignment angles and tire wear patterns to ensure your lifted suspension is working correctly.

When Should You Get a Lift Kit Suspension Check?

We recommend inspecting your lifted suspension:

• Every 5,000–7,500 miles
• After installing a lift kit (first check at 500–1,000 miles)
• After any off-road trip
• Whenever you notice vibrations, clunks, or steering changes
• After adding new wheels or oversized tires

Routine checks keep your lifted vehicle safe and reliable on or off the road.
