The ReadyLIFT 1.5-inch Smart Suspension System (SST) for the 2013-2017 Subaru Crosstrek is a precision-engineered lift solution tailored for first-generation adventure enthusiasts. This kit provides a balanced 1.5-inch lift for both the front and rear, utilizing heavy-duty offset-design front strut spacers to maintain factory alignment geometry. By combining heavy-duty steel rear spacers with CNC-machined billet aluminum subframe drop spacers, this system ensures the rear suspension remains properly centered and aligned, delivering a taller stance and increased ground clearance for trouble-free off-road excursions.

Features

• Provides a 1.5-inch front and rear lift to increase ground clearance and improve the vehicle's stance.
• Fabricated heavy-duty steel plate front strut extensions feature an offset design to maintain factory camber and caster.
• Includes CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet aluminum rear subframe spacers to correct rear suspension geometry.
• Retains factory driving dynamics and ride quality for a comfortable experience on and off the pavement.
• Allows for the installation of up to a 215/75-15 tire on a 15x7 wheel with a +10mm offset.
• Substantially increases ground clearance at the rockers when paired with aggressive off-road tires.
• Easy bolt-on installation with no permanent vehicle modifications or cutting required.
• Made in the USA and backed by high-quality precision engineering.

Notes

• A professional wheel alignment is required after installation to ensure optimal handling and safety.
• Headlamp aim must be checked and adjusted for safety following the change in ride height.
• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) should be recalibrated to maintain proper monitoring and function.
• Installation by a certified mechanic is recommended to ensure the subframe spacers are correctly integrated.
• Note: Some lifted Subaru models may exhibit a low-speed "rumble" or "wobble" (17-22 MPH) due to aging factory transmission mounts; this can be addressed with an aftermarket mount insert.
