A FEW WORDS ABOUT SAFETY:
Your safety and the safety of other motorists is very important. As the owner of a modified suspension vehicle you are the
person choosing the combination of suspension, wheels, tires and drive train that best fit your intended use. Likewise, you
are the person responsible for the safety and legality of the vehicle you modify. In modifying your vehicle's suspension,
balance your off-road capabilities against how the vehicle may actually be used off-road and on-road.
It is not practical or possible to warn about all hazards associated with modifying your suspension for improved off road
capabilities. To help you make informed decisions about safety, we have provided certain information in the form of
"Notices", "Cautions", and "Warnings". This information alerts you to potential hazards that could hurt you or others.
Notice: This is a caution against anything which may cause damage to the vehicle or its equipment if the caution is
ignored. The Notice includes information about how you can avoid or reduce those risks.
Caution: This is a signal telling you that you or others CAN BE HURT if you dont follow the instructions. The Caution
includes information about how you can avoid those risks
Warning: This is a signal telling you that you CAN be KILLED or SERIOUSLY HURT if you don't follow the Warning. The
Warning includes information about what you must or must not do in order to reduce the risk of injury to yourself
and others.
The following Warning label is included with your
Rugged Ridge™ suspension kit and should be
placed on the vehicle visor or other conspicuous
location after installation:
WARNING
HIGHER ROLLOVER RISK
The suspension of this vehicle has been modified by the owner to
improve off-road capabilities. As a result, this vehicle may handle
differently than as factory equipped including increased ride-height;
reduced lateral stability and risk of roll-over or other accident. Also,
owner's choice of larger tire and wheel combinations may require
additional braking force or increased stopping distances.
• Failure to drive this vehicle safely may result in serious injury or damage. Avoid
Sharp Turns or abrupt maneuvers. Do not drive the vehicle under any speed or
maneuvering conditions which may cause the vehicle to trip, roll, lose traction or
compromise your ability to safely brake in an emergency.
• Familiarize yourself with all vehicle manufacturers and Rugged Ridge™ warnings,
instructions and limited warranties before driving this modified suspension vehicle.
Follow recommended maintenance procedures and routinely inspect your vehicle
components for unusual wear or off-road damage.
• Always wear seat belts and/or appropriate off-road restraints, reduce your speed,
tread lightly
and safely enjoy your off-road vehicle.

! Warning: Improper use of air and power tools can cause serious injury. Familiarize yourself with tool manufacturers
warnings and instructions before use. Always wear approved safety glasses.
