JEEP WRANGLER 2 & 4 DOOR (JK) 2.5” SPACER KIT
‘07- ’13 KIT# TM3325-40010/TM3325-40013
WARNING
Installation of a Trail Master suspension lift kit will
change the vehicle’s center of gravity and handling
characteristics both on- and off-road. You must drive
the vehicle safely! Extreme care must be taken to
prevent vehicle rollover or loss of control, which
could result in serious injury or death. Avoid sudden
sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers and always make
sure all vehicle occupants have their seat belts fastened.
WARNING
Before you install this kit, read and understand all
instructions, warnings, cautions, and notes in this
instruction sheet and in the vehicle owner’s manual.
CAUTION
Proper installation of this kit requires knowledge of
the factory recommended procedures for removal
and installation of original equipment components.
We recommend that the factory shop manual and
any special tools needed to service your vehicle be
on hand during the installation. Installation of this kit
without proper knowledge of the factory recommended procedures may affect the performance of
these components and the safety of the vehicle. We
strongly recommend that a certified mechanic familiar with the installation of similar components install
this kit.
WARNING
This kit should only be installed on a vehicle that is in
good working condition. Before you install the kit,
thoroughly inspect the vehicle for corrosion or deformation of the sheet metal. If the vehicle is suspected
to have been in a collision or misused, do not install
this kit. Off-road use of your vehicle with this kit installed may increase the stress applied to the factory
components. Failure to observe this warning may
result in serious personal injury and/or severe damage to your vehicle.
WARNING
Many states and municipalities have laws restricting
bumper heights and vehicle lifts. Consult state and
local laws to determine if the changes you intend to
make to the vehicle comply with the law.
WARNING
The installation of larger tires may reduce the effectiveness of the braking system.
WARNING
Always wear eye protection when operating power
tools.
WARNING
Before you install this kit, block the vehicle tires to
prevent the vehicle from rolling.
WARNING
DO NOT combine suspension, body, or other lift devices. Use of vehicle with combined lifts may result
in unsafe and/or unexpected handling characteristics.
NOTE
Lift height may vary depending on vehicle configuration, engine size, additional accessories, the factory
suspension package, and vehicle’s condition.
NOTE
Trail Master recommends using thread locking compound on the threads of all kit nuts and bolts unless
specified otherwise in these instructions.

WARNING
Re-torque all fasteners after 500 miles and after
off road use. All suspension lift components
should be visually inspected and fasteners retorqued during routine vehicle servicing.
CAUTION
Trail Master does not recommend any particular
wheel and tire combinations for use with its suspension lifts and cannot assume responsibility for
the customer’s choice of wheels and tires. Refer
to your owner's manual for recommended tire
sizes and warnings related to the use of oversized tires. Larger wheel and tire combinations
increase stress and wear on steering and suspension components, which leads to increased
maintenance and higher risk for component failure. Larger wheel and tire combinations also alter speedometer calibration, braking effectiveness, center of gravity, and handling characteristics. Consult an experienced local off road shop
to find what wheel and tire combinations work
best with your vehicle.
NOTE
All warranty information, instruction sheets, and
other documents regarding the installation of this
product must be retained by the vehicle owner.
Information contained in the instructions and on
the warranty card will be required for any warranty claims. The vehicle owner needs to understand the modifications made to the vehicle and
how they affect vehicle handling and performance. Failure to provide the customer with this
information can result in damage to the vehicle
and severe personal injury.

Notice to Owner Operator, Dealer and Installer:
Vehicles that have been enhanced for off-road performance often have unique handling characteristics
due to the higher center of gravity and larger tires. This vehicle may handle, react and stop differently than
many passenger cars or unmodified vehicles, both on and off–road. You must drive your vehicle safely!
Extreme care should always be taken to prevent vehicle rollover or loss of control, which can result in serious injury or even death. Always avoid sudden sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers and allow more time and
distance for braking! Trail Master Suspension
reminds you to fasten your seat belts at all times and reduce speed! We will gladly answer any questions concerning the design, function, maintenance and correct use of our products.
Please make sure your Dealer/Installer explains and delivers all warning notices, warranty forms
and instruction sheets included with Trail Master Suspension
product.
Application listings in this catalog have been carefully fit checked for each model and year denoted. However, Trail Master Suspension
reserves the right to update as necessary, without notice, and will not be
held responsible for misprints, changes or variations made by vehicle manufacturers. Please call when in

originally distributed in the USA.
Please note that certain mechanical aspects of any suspension lift product may accelerate ordinary wear of original equipment components. Further, installation of certain Trail Master Suspension
products may void the vehicle’s factory warranty as it pertains to certain covered parts; it is the consumer’s responsibility to check with their local dealer for warranty coverage before installation of the lift.
