Limited lifetime warranty
Notice to all Tuff Country EZ-Ride Suspension
customers: It is your responsibility to keep your
original sales receipt! If failure should occur on any
Tuff Country EZ-Ride Suspension component, your
original sales receipt must accompany the warranted
unit to receive warranty. Warranty will be void if the
customer can not provide the original sales receipt. Do
not install a body lift in conjunction with a suspension
system. If a body lift is used in conjunction with any
Tuff Country EZ-Ride Suspension product, your Tuff
Country EZ-Ride Suspension WARRANTY WILL BE
VOID. Tuff Country Inc. (“Tuff Country” ) suspension
products are warranted to be free from defects in
material and workmanship for life if purchased,
installed and maintained on a non-commercial vehicle;
otherwise, for a period of twelve (12) months, from the
date of purchase and installation on a commercial
vehicle, or twelve thousand (12,000) miles (which ever
occurs first). Tuff Country does not warrant or make
any representations concerning Tuff Country Products
when not installed and used strictly in accordance
with the manufacturer’s instructions for such
installation and operation and accordance with good
installation and maintenance practices of the
automotive industry. This warranty does not apply to
the cosmetic finish of Tuff Country products nor to
Tuff Country products which have been altered,
improperly installed, maintained, used or repaired, or
damaged by accident, negligence, misuse or racing.
(“Racing is used in its broadest sense, and, for
example, without regards to formalities in relation to
prizes, competition, etc.) This warranty is void if the
product is removed from the original vehicle and
re-installed on that or any other vehicle. This warranty
is exclusive and is in lieu of any implied warranty of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or
other warranty of quality, whether express or implied,
except the warranty of title. All implied warranties are
limited to the duration of this warranty. The remedies
set forth in this warranty are exclusive. This warranty
excludes all labor charges or other incidental of
consequential damages. Any part or product returned
for warranty claim must be returned through the
dealer of the distributor from whom it was purchased.
Tuff Country reserves the right to examine all parts
returned to it for warranty claim to determine whether
or not any such part has failed because of defect in
material or workmanship. The obligation of Tuff
Country under this warranty shall be limited to
repairing, replacing or crediting, at its option, any part
or product found to be so defective. Regardless of
whether any part is repaired, replaced or credited
under this warranty, shipping and/or transportation
charges on the return of such product must be prepaid
by the customer under this warranty.
Important information that needs to be read before instal-
lation begins:
Tuff Country recommends a 33” x 12.50” tire with a wheel
that has a back spacing of 5.5” or less. The stock tires
and wheels can be used in conjunction with this lift kit. If
a wider tire is installed on the stock wheel, contact with
the upper control arm will occur, and is not recommend-
ed.
This Suspension kit comes with (1) installation manual
and some post installation procedure literature and it is
the installers responsibility to make sure that the cus-
tomer receives the post installation procedure literature.
If a customer would like a copy of the installation manu-
al, please have them visit our website at www.tuffcoun-
try.com. Have them go to the customer care section to
download these instructions. If you have any questions,
please feel free to call us at (801) 280-2777.
The OE shocks will be long enough once this suspension
system has been installed but Tuff Country highly recom-
mends replacing the rear shocks. If you have not already
ordered your rear shocks, please contact Tuff Country or
your local Tuff Country dealer and order your new rear
shocks. Tuff Country recommends install a 30” fully
extended nitrogen gas shock.
Before installation begins, Tuff Country EZ-Ride
Suspension highly recommends that the installer
performs a test drive on the vehicle. During the test
drive, check to see if there are any uncommon sounds
or vibrations. If uncommon sounds or vibrations occur
on the test drive, uncommon sounds or vibrations will
be enhanced once the suspension system has been
installed. Tuff Country EZ-Ride Suspension highly
recommends notifying the customer prior to installa-
tion to inform the customer of these issues if they
exist.
Make sure to use loctite on all new and stock hardware
associated with the installation of this suspension
system.
Tuff Country EZ-Ride Suspension recommends a wall
mounted strut compressor be used when performing
the steps that talk about installing the pre-load spacer
into the strut. If you do not have a wall mounted strut
compressor, please have these steps performed by
your local Ford Dealership
