Product Use Information
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 suspension system was developed for 37x12.50 tire on the stock 17” x 9” or 20” wheels at 5” of lift. On an after-
market wheel you will need to purchase a 8” wide wheel with minimum of 4-5/8” of backspacing. When larger tires are
installed, speedometer recalibration is necessary. Due to ride height inconsistencies from the factory you may need to
slightly trim the front plastic valance for proper tire clearance.
This kit can also be used a 3500 single rear wheel truck. Use of this kit on a dual rear wheel pickup is not rec-
ommended. Block and u-bolt combinations may vary with 3500 models.
On vehicles equipped with a two piece driveshaft & carrier bearing as on the Mega Cab, there is the potential
for take off vibration, depending on the severity this can be corrected with shimming down the carrier bearing.
Carrier bearing drop kit Part # 1110 is available from Rough Country. Also 2500/3500 trucks with factory over-
load springs the overload will have to be removed for the new block and u-bolt installation.
