Lifting a 2009-2016 Dodge Ram 1500 4wd both in front and in the rear is an excellent way to achieve that "Ram Tough" look. ReadyLIFT SST Lift Kits are the fastest, safest, least expensive way to mildly lift your vehicle at both ends. ReadyLift SST Lift Kits go one step beyond our 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 '09-16 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD suspension allows our 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 '09-16 Dodge Ram 1500 4WD feature all-steel construction designed to last the life of the vehicle.
The Solution: MADE IN U.S.A - ReadyLIFT 69-1036 SST Lift Kit is offered with our new Tubular Upper Control Arms which resolve the common problem of the factory ball joint falling out of the stock control arm. This can occur when leveling your Ram 1500 4WD truck. This great leveling kit/UCA combination allows you to safely level your truck while insuring you will never have a ball joint problem. If you haven't heard about this problem and haven't experienced it YET, just do a search for it online and you will find out the factory ball joints chronically separate from the stock control arm. If you want to safely level your Ram truck, this is the only kit you will want to install on your truck.
The 69-1036 Dodge Ram 1500 lift kit also 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 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 69-1036 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.
Cannot be used with airbag systems.
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.

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.
