** Ride heights indicated are typical. Actual ride height is influenced by which factory suspension the vehicle is equipped with and

its condition; optional equipment and accessories on your vehicle, and other vehicle modifications such as replacement coil springs,

wheel and tire combinations, etc.

Modifying/lifting the suspension to your vehicle may raise its center of gravity and may make it more susceptible to loss of control

and/or rollover, which may result in death or serious injury. We strongly recommend that you offset the loss of rollover resistance as

much as possible by increasing tire track width, and that you equip the vehicle with a functional roll bar and cage system.

Wear seat belts and shoulder harnesses at all times, and avoid situations where a side rollover may occur.
