What We Service

Custom suspension is about more than just height—it’s about engineering and performance. Our factory-trained technicians provide comprehensive service and installation, ensuring your vehicle handles properly both on the street and on the trail:

  • Full Suspension Lift Kits: installation of 4-inch, 6-inch, 8-inch, and 10-inch kits from top brands like Rough Country, BDS Suspension, Rancho, and Fabtech.
  • Leveling Kits: affordable solutions to eliminate factory rake and allow for slightly larger tires without fully lifting the truck.
  • Performance Suspension Upgrades: installation of specialized components like coilovers, heavy-duty control arms, traction bars, and custom leaf springs.
  • High-Performance Shocks: upgrading worn factory shocks to premium options from FOX, King, or Bilstein to dramatically improve ride quality and off-road capability.
  • Alignment & Calibration: after every lift installation, we perform a precise four-wheel alignment and necessary sensor calibrations (e.g., speedometer, safety systems) to ensure proper handling and electronics.

Lifted Truck Maintenance Services at Krietz Auto Repair

Your Lifted Truck Deserves Expert Care—And We Deliver It.

Lifted trucks aren’t like standard vehicles. Heavier components, higher suspension angles, oversized wheels, and off-road upgrades all place added demands on your maintenance routine. At Krietz Auto Repair, we provide complete, professional maintenance services tailored specifically to the needs of lifted and modified trucks—so you can enjoy maximum performance, reliability, and safety every day.

Whether you daily drive, tow, or hit the trails, you can count on us for all your scheduled maintenance needs.

Brake Inspections & Replacement

General Preventative Maintenance

Everything your lifted truck needs, done in one place:

  • Belts & hoses
  • Lights, sensors, and safety systems
  • Full multi-point inspections

Why Lifted Trucks Need Specialized Maintenance

Lift kits, larger tires, and modified suspension systems change how your truck wears down over time. Without proper care, you risk:

  • Premature tire wear
  • Poor handling or steering shake
  • Worn-out ball joints or control arms
  • Overheated fluids
  • Faster brake wear
  • Drivetrain stress
  • Reduced fuel economy

Regular maintenance at Krietz Auto Repair ensures every component stays in top condition—no matter how big your build is.
