Please read instructions before beginning installation. Check the kit hardware against the parts diagram. Be

stallation steps call our tech line at 731-285-9000.
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 steer” and front-
end vibration, giving added life to tires, ball joints, and other steering components. A large bore off-road stabilizer kit
is highly recommended for vehicles equipped with larger tires. Rough Country part# 87317. Rough Country
also offers a replacement spring bolt kit to replace all leaf spring mounting bolts, Part #1184.
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 resis-
tance 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 combina-
tion as possible to enhance vehicle stability.
Seat belts and shoulder harnesses should be worn at all times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may occur. Gener-
ally, 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 al-
tered.
This suspension system was developed using a 31x10.5 tire on a 15” x 8” wheel with 3.75” of backspacing.
