Important information that needs to be read before installa-
tion begins:

Tuff Country recommends a 275/70 tire package once part #
32902 has been installed. If larger than a 275/70 tire is
installed on your in conjunction with part # 32902; Tuff
Country assumes no liability and the warranty will be VOID.

Please be aware that some Dodge Ram owners may experi-
ence a vibration in the front end or a violent shaking vibra-
tion of the front wheels when going over a bump at certain
speeds. This is due to the front differential and suspension
when Dodge Ram trucks are in 4x4 mode. These two symp-
toms are often lumped together and called a "death wobble"
however it is actually two different problems with the Ram
Truck.

The 4HI mode vibration is a vibration or shudder that occurs
when accelerating in 4x4 high mode. This symptom appears
isolated to 2006-2012 1500 non-Mega Cab model trucks and
only when in 4-hi mode. Dodge could not discover why their
stock trucks would do this for some customers and not oth-
ers so the final official statement from Dodge was that there
is no problem and that all of the new Rams will shudder or
shake when in 4x4 high.

Therefore, after installing the leveling kit on your Dodge Ram
truck and experience either of the two symptoms mentioned
above, Tuff Country recommends two options. 1). Remove
the kit from the vehicle and send it back to the company you
purchased it from for a full refund or 2). Install High angle CV
joints that will stabilize the factory vehicles issues.

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 installation to
inform the customer of these issues if they exist.
