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
harness be worn at all times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may
occur.
Braking performance and capabilities are decreased when significantly
large/heavier 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 in-
crease vehicle height over the intended height of the Daystar Product pur-
chased. Mixing component brands, lifts, and/or combining body lift with
