PRODUCT USE INFORMATION
As a general rule, the taller a vehicle is, the easier it will roll. Seat belts and shoulder harnesses should be worn at all
times. Avoid situations where a side rollover may occur. Generally, braking performance and capability are decreased
when larger/heavier tires and wheels are used. Take this into consideration while driving. 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 pur-
chased. Mixing component brands is not recommended.
Rough Country makes no claims regarding lifting devices and excludes any and all implied claims. We will not be re-
sponsible for any product that is altered.
If question exist we will be happy to answer any questions concerning the de-
sign, function, and correct use of our products.
**Note this kit will only fit a S-10 pickup ext. cab.**
This suspension system was developed using a 265/75-16, tire with 16” x 8” wide wheel with a 4.5” to 5” back-
spacing with minor trimming. If wider tires are used, offset wheels and trimming will be required. This kit was
developed to obtain a front ride height of 25” on newer body style and 26” older body style as measured from
the center of the front wheel to the bottom of the fender well.
