this system without this knowledge and expertise may jeopardize the integrity and/or operating safety of the vehicle.

PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is the easier it will roll. We strongly recommend seat belts and shoulder
harnesses should be worn at all times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may occur.
Braking performance and capabilities are decreased when significantly larger/heaver tires and wheels are used. Take
this into consideration while driving. Also, speedometer recalibration is necessary when larger tires are installed.
Do no add, alter, or fabricate any factory or after-market parts which increase vehicle height over the intended height of
the Rough Country product purchased. Mixing component brands, lifts, and/or combining body lift with suspension lifts
voids all warranties. 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.
This kit is packaged as a leveling kit—raising the front 6” and the back 5”. If you desire a different look or if the vehicle
has a tool box or added weight in the rear, please consult with your sales representative about block / u-bolt options.
This 6” suspension system was developed for 37x12.50x17 tire on an after market wheel w/ 4.5” back spacing.
If equipped with factory rear contact overload springs, pleaser note that they will need to be removed with the
addition of the block /add-a-leaf combination on this kit.
