IMPORTANT NOTE: The advertised amount of lift that this kit provides and the thick­ness of the spacers supplied will not be the same! For example, a 2-1/2” lift may only have 1-1/2” thick spacers. The reason for the difference between the spacer thickness and the amount of lift has to do with suspension geometry. There is a ratio involved, and it is this ratio that determines the thickness of the spacers. Rest assured, installing the spacer supplied will result in the proper amount of lift out at the wheel.

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/ heavyer tires and wheels are used. Take this into consideration while driving, also , speedometer recalibration is necessary when larger tires are installed.
Do not add, alter, or fabricate any factory or after-market pa rt s whi ch inc rease vehicle height over the intended height of the Daystar Product purchased. Mixing component brands, lifts, and/or combining body lift with suspension lift voids all warranties. Daystar makes no claims regarding lifting devices and excludes any and all implied claims. We will not be responsible for any products that is al­tered.
