WARNING
Higher Rollover Risk
Modifying your Jeep® to improve off-road perfor-
mance may result in vehicle handling different than as
factory equipped, including increased ride-height and/
or chassis articulation; reduced lateral stability and
higher risk of roll-over or other accident. Also, owner’s
choice of larger tire and wheel combinations may
require additional braking force or increased stopping
distances.
To reduce risk of serious injury and accident:
Â
Choose modifications that balance your actual
highway & off-road use.
Â
Avoid sharp turns, abrupt maneuvers or steep
side-cambers.
Â
Avoid other maneuvering conditions which may
cause the vehicle to trip, roll, lose traction or com-
promise your ability to safely brake in an emer-
gency.
Â
Routinely inspect your vehicle components for un-
usual wear or off-road damage. Repair or Replace
any unserviceable components before use.
Â
Acquaint any other drivers with your vehicle modi-
fications and handling.
Â
Always wear seat belts and/or appropriate off-road
restraints, reduce your speed, Tread Lightly©.

be required to avoid sway bar inversion in full droop
conditions. Check link position at full suspension
droop before driving. Contact JKS tech support for
additional assistance if this condition exists.

hoses or other modifications to compensate for ad
