Default ESP - I Need real results

How has people succesfully dealt with ESP on a highway ramp. What is the answer to make it work with a lift. I have an OME with only 33" tires. How do people with 35"s deal???

Help please

I am sorry to hear this problem happened to you. I have still had no ESP issues with my setup. I wish I could help but I probably know less than you do . Good luck getting it figured out.

Thanks

Check your owners manual it has instructions on how to turn the esp off completely. When you find a better solution it can be turned back on. Its on page 113 under "Disabling ESP for Modified Vehicles."

I have a Pro Comp 4"/2" with 315/70/17's and have had no problem what so ever with the esp system, I also had an alignment done right away. I have wheeled with it since the lift and tires both in the sand dunes beating the you know what out of it as well as in the rocks and still no issues. 4 wheel parts told me to go directly to the dealer after doing the ires to have them "reset" or "program" the esp but I blew that off and have been problem free. I still need to recalibrate the speedo but I'm waiting for the Uni Chip / Flux so I can do it myself.

Just my $.02

Have you ever thought about slowing down??? A jeep is not a sports car. I have 35's and have never had the esp come on.
