WARNING TO END USER, INSTALLER AND
SELLER OF THIS PART!
By installing this part you are accepting full responsibility and liability for
proper wheel and tire fitment after installation.
It is the installer’s responsibility to properly align the vehicle before use.
Using a wheel tire fitment combination that results in any contact from the
tire and/or wheels with the new installed ReadyLIFT® upper control arm or
inner fenders at any point including full steering lock will void the Ready-
LIFT® warranty and may result in failure of the ball joints. Failure to do so
may cause damage to your vehicle and/or injury or death to the driver and
passengers.
