ESP/ABS activation through corners
OK guys, do a search on ESP activation. You'll find that I've been bitchin about this since day one. My Jeep is going to the dealer again on Monday. I finally found one that would stand behind me since I've lifted and installed taller tires. Enumclaw Jeep in Washington state has been great so far. I previously went to 2 other dealerships in Washington and they weren't what I'd call "lift kit friendly". The service writer at Enumclaw said they actually install lifts. So I have high hopes for good results this time. Hang in there, we'll get this resolved. Other than this nagging issue, I love my Jeep!

I have the same 3 in BDS lift, and 33 nittos. Right now have my stock 17in rims. Waiting for more rims to come out. Hey jacked up JK... what color is your jk?
I took my jk to the dealer for the flash and or TSB. They were able to do the TSB recall for the ESP BAS problem on mine. I had them line up the steering wheel/ align front end also. They said there is a short in my "clock" steering column or something that is causing the light to come on. They ordered the parts. However.... the light went off about 5 miles later and hasnt been back on.
This dealer did not install the lift but is very lift friendly. There was no charge.

Just an update on this.
I took it to the dealer last Friday, March 31, and they flashed it for 32's (Charged me $95.00...so much for taking care of me). I also had em install the Teraflex 2.5" BB. I was gonna do the install myself when I had time but we were going on a run on Sunday, April 1, and I wanted to take care of the rubbing issue I had the week before.
Took it out to Painted Canyon and Fargo Canyon south of Indio for a SoCal 4x4 Geocachers run and then yesterday I was back up in the mountains driving the same road I was on when the ESP kept activating.
No problems or issues. ESP didn't activate once.

I went around the same cloverleaf that always kicks on my ESP and it didnt go off. Only difference is that my hard top was off. I am sure the extra weight Up high raises the center of gravity enough to cause the problem. Curious to know if others experience this.
