Rough Country recommends this system be installed by a certified technician. In addition to these instructions, professional
knowledge of disassemble/reassembly procedures as well as post installation checks must be known. Attempts to install this
system without this knowledge and expertise may jeopardize the integrity and/or operating safety of the vehicle.
Please read instructions before beginning installation. Be sure you have all needed parts and know where they go.
With the installation of all lift kits and larger tires it is important to check the condition of your steering stabilizer. If the
stabilizer is worn or is leaking it should be replaced. Steering stabilizers are designed to restrain “bump steering” and front end
vibration, giving added life to tires, ball joints, and other steering components. A multiple stabilizer kit is recommended for
vehicles equipped with a snow plow, winch, or larger tires
PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is, the easier it will roll. Offset, as much as possible, what is lost in rollover resistance by
increasing tire track width. In other words, go "wide" as you go "tall". Many sportsmen remove their mud tires after hunting
season and install ones more appropriate for street driving; always use as wide a tire and wheel combination as possible to
enhance vehicle stability.
We strongly recommend, because of rollover possibility, that 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 significantly 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 responsible
for any product that is altered.
If question exist we will be happy to answer any questions concerning the design, function, and correct use of our products.
