Before beginning the installation, thoroughly & completely read these instructions & the enclosed

driver’s WARNING NOTICE. Affix the WARNING decal in the passenger compartment in clear view

of all occupants. Please refer to the Parts List to insure that all parts & hardware are received prior

to the disassembly of the vehicle. If any parts are found to be missing, contact SKYJACKER

Customer Service at 318-388-0816 to obtain the needed items. If you have any questions or

reservations about installing this lift kit, contact SKYJACKER

Technical Assistance at 318-388-

0816.

Make sure you park the vehicle on a level concrete or asphalt surface. Many times a vehicle is not

level (side-to-side) from the factory & is usually not noticed until a lift kit has been installed, which

makes the difference more visible. Using a measuring tape, measure the front & rear (both sides)

from the ground up to the center of the fender opening above the axle. Record this information

below for future reference.

• If larger tires (10% more than the OEM diameter) are installed, speedometer recalibration will be

necessary. Contact your local Toyota dealer or an authorized dealer for details.

• After installation, a qualified alignment facility is required to align the vehicle to the OEM

specifications.

Jesus Forgives, Rocks Don’t www.skyjacker.com Jesus Christ Died For You. Jesús murió por ti. For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Romans 3:23 “Porque tanto amó Dios al mundo, que dio a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo el que cree en él no se pierda, sino que tenga vida eterna.” Romanos 3:23 For all have sinned; all fall short of God’s glorious standard.
