ReadyLift 69-2070 3"F / 2"R Lift Kit - Ford Expedition/Navigator 2003-2017

I had been looking at putting a lift on my 2016 Ford Expedition EL for quite some time now, but was waiting until I was also ready to replace the struts. I have just over 98K miles on my truck and decided it was time, so I purchased the ReadyLift 3/2 kit to install on my truck. I installed them on top of KYB Strut-Plus coil and strut assemblies on all 4 corners. I have done some limited suspension work in the past, and do consider myself to be mechanically inclined although I'm not a professional by any means. I found this install to be of moderate difficulty, and found the tutorial video on the ReadyLift website as well as the instructions that came with the kit to be helpful. If you plan to install yourself, be sure to have access to 2 jacks and a pair of 3 ton jack stands. I have a 3 ton floor jack and used the spare tire jack as the second one during the install to assist with supporting the lower control arms and helping top push the rear control arms where they connect to the frame back into place after installing the new strut assembly. Aside from normal tools, you will also need a cheater bar to get some of the bolts off as they are heavily torqued. I was able to do this job by myself without the need for an assistant. Stick to the video and it will work out well. I do agree that my upper control arms are now stretched to their max, however since I also installed new springs which will settle a bit over time this will likely improve some. I am considering looking for some longer front upper control arms, however, to reduce the stress on the ball joints. Aside from that, there are no modifications needed and I completed this project in about 8 hours in my garage. Attached are the before/after pictures. Please note that I did initially have a 2" levelling kit on the front that was installed by the prior owner (I removed that when I installed this lift kit), and my wheels are 20x9 with an 18mm offset (XD Grenades). The tires shown on both photos are BFG KO2s, size 305 55R20 (equivalent to about a 34" tire), although I do plan to put 35s on soon and don't expect to have any issues with rubbing given the offset of my aftermarket wheels. All in all, this was exactly the kit I was looking for and I couldn't be happier with the new ride height. It is very noticeable and gives the truck a much tougher look, and even stepping into the truck now it feels much higher than it did before. The truck rides so much better now, mostly due to the new coil/strut assemblies but I do feel that the lift kit has something to do with it as well. I would recommend changing out the struts while you're there unless your struts are almost brand new already, as there is a fair amount of work in getting the old assemblies out to install the lift spacers. I would also recommend considering replacing the front UCAs while you're there, but I haven't looked at other options yet so I don't have a particular UCA to recommend - I recall seeing Moog mentioned in other reviews, so that may be a good option. All in all, I highly recommend this lift kit for the cost and time to install, and wouldn't be afraid of tackling this myself assuming you have the right tools and equipment. Huge improvement over the prior ride height and ride quality.

Solid product. Gave me enough lift for the Expedition. I do wish ReadyLift or other companies would make a larger lift. After install and alignment, ride OEM ride quality was still there. Didnt have to upgrade struts. Basically lift n play! Handle great offroad, although lol it's technically just a spacer 😜

Easy install. Looks great.

This kit is a cheap way to add ride height to fit large tires. I didnt need it, but used it on my 2008 Expedition to add a couple inches in the front and back to add more wheel well space with larger tires. The vehicle did fit 285/70/R17 without the kit. One extremely frustrating issue with this kit was that they sent the wrong hardware that was not compatible with their own kit...The lift spacers use M10x1.25 studs. Half of the nuts they included with the kit were incompatible and of course this was discovered after getting the front two blocks installed. I had to run to the hardware store during the middle of the job and spend 15 bucks on nuts and washers which was a nuisance. I'm not even sure how an assembly line could screw up something like that so seemingly simple...oh well.

Simple, sturdy, not an easy install but installed alone with jacks and hand tools in about 8 hours. Running Ford SVT Raptor with BFG ko2 315/70r17s the only rubbing I’ve experienced is on the wheel well liner, should be easy enough to wire further back or trim. Had a 4 whee alignment done and it handles great.

Good kit no issues.

Lift was easy to install and looks great. No issues at all. One note for people reading reviews. Ignore the other reviewer that said that it wasn’t the advertised height and showed a picture of a tape measure next to the spacer. The spacer size was just right to achieve the advertised height due to the geometry of the suspension. Great price as well.

I love it! installed these bad boys the same day i received them on my 06 Expedition 4x4, took only 2hrs, and it is nice holy crap its awsome the extentions are very solid. its very simple drop and pull out your struts and attach and reinstall and get yourself a 3" lift instantly hahaha i highly recommend this product. the other is all my family and friends asking about it hahahaha now its time to get some bigger tires.....GET SOME!!!

J’ai commandé le quitte 69–2070, qui était pour relever ma suspension avant de 3’’ et arrière de 2’’. Les mesures réels sont 1 3/4’’ en avant et 1 1/4’’ en arrière 😕.
