PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is the easier it will roll. 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.
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 2”-3” and the back 1.5”. If you desire a different look or if your
truck has a tool box or something else that is going to bring the rear end down, please consult with your sales repetitive
about option higher block and u-bolt options.
The 2.5” suspension kit was developed for 285/75x16 tire on 16” wheel. With the addition of larger tires, trimming will
have to be performed for adequate tire clearance.
