Thank you for choosing Rough Country for all your suspension needs.
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 resis­tance 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 wh eel combina­tion as possible to enhance vehicle stability.
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 recom mended. 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 altered.
If questions exist concerning the design, function, and correct use of our products we will be happy to answer these questions.
