IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The installation of this kit does not alter the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or payload

listed for your vehicle.

Certification Label.

Payload: The combined, maximum allowable weight of cargo and passengers that the truck 

is designed to carry. Payload is GVWR minus the Base Curb Weight.
