‘19 with 2.5” lift, now rides horrid

[Larry Morgan]

Any help will be appreciated. I had a Professional installation of the Readylift 2.5” front leveling kit. Mounted 37” BFG KO2’s and had new alignment to Readylift specs. Now when I hit a reasonable bump on the interstate it’ll knock your fillings out of your teeth. I mean almost losing control of the truck...

I’m running 36 psi in the front tires and 34 psi in the rear.

What size wheels? Assuming 20's?

Lose the spacer kit before it gets ugly if you go off road. I'd go with Eibach springs.

Shocker! Cheap ass lift spacer what did you expect? The good news is that you get to pay again to have it done correctly. Lose the spacer and change the springs.

So you ******'d out a perfectly good Raptor and now it rides like crap.

De-****** it.

Worst part is the Readylift kit is more than Eibachs.

First thing to do is a shock reset.

Simply sit in the truck without foot on the brake. Ignition On without Engine Start. Then Ignition Off.

According to RPG, this will reset the sensors in the shocks and it can usually correct the feeling of the shocks after install.

That said, the Readylift system isn't the best if you're going to leave the pavement as it throws the angles of the suspension out of whack, more than springs/collars. If you're going to keep it on the street, it'll be fine. If you do want to swap it out, let me know and we'll be happy to go over options with you.

What is the load rating of the new tires? If they are "D" or "E", they will never be a soft riding as the stock "C" at same pressure.
Plus, what everyone else said.
