PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is, the easier it will roll. Seat belts and shoulder harnesses should be worn at all
times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may occur.
Generally, braking performance and capability are decreased when larger/heavier tires and wheels are used. Take this
into consideration while driving. Do not add, alter, or fabricate any factory or after-market parts to increase vehicle height
over the intended height of the Rough Country product purchased. Mixing component brands is not recommended.
Rough Country makes no claims regarding lifting devices and excludes any and all implied claims. We will not be re-
sponsible for any product that is altered.
This suspension system was developed using a 285/70/17, tire with factory wheels. Note if wider tires are used, offset
wheels will be required and trimming will be required.
**Note** The electric power steering must be unplugged before any of the steering components are removed. Failure to
do so may cause damage to the electric power steering.
If you have any questions concerning the design, function, and correct use of our products please contact us at 800-222-
