Thank you for choosing Rough Country Off Road Gear for your suspension needs.
Rough Country recommends a certified technician install this system. 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. Check the kit hardware against the parts list. 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.

NOTICE TO DEALER AND VEHICLE OWNER
Any vehicle equipped with any Rough Country product should have a “Warning to Driver” decal installed on the
inside of the windshield or on the vehicle’s dash. The decal should act as a constant reminder for whoever is
operating the vehicle of its unique handling characteristics.
INSTALLING DEALER - it is your responsibility to install the warning decal and forward these installation
instructions on to the vehicle owner for review. These instructions should be kept in the vehicle for its service life.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
This bracket kit is not designed to be a lift kit. It’s designed to relocate the front spring shackle point from the front
of the spring to the rear, vastly improving ride quality. Before starting, verify that your vehicles frame is straight and
in alignment. Also, check frame rails for cracks and or heavy rust. Only install this system on vehicles in good
sound shape.
With the installation of this kit the front driveshaft will pull out slightly revealing more of the drive shaft. This is
common and necessary for the Jeep to function properly. The normal operating travel of the front end with this kit
has been changed to swing rearward instead of front ward. The driveshaft length should not be changed. If a new
driveshaft is desired, the new shaft must be stock length or run the risk of a longer shaft bottoming out and
impacting the transfer case.
