Well the steering wheel is centered so that isn't the issue. But i will look into the esp kill switch. I've owned two other cars without abs, not too worried about it.

I have esp issues when I mess with my trac bar or drag link lengths. The steering wheel needs to be centered or the jeep will think you are in a really long, permanent skid. If it isn't, we can center it when we get together in Sunday if you want.
Yep, looking forward to Sunday! Matt, I do not have any issues other than last two time we came trail my abs sensor was dirty and put the brakes on! Just hit the abs kill switch till I got home and cleaned them!

Guess I am just old! Have had two CJ5's, one YJ, Comanche, Cherokee and various other 4x4 and cars with out ABS. You can live without it!

I recently re-calibrated the computer with the help of a fancy Superchip Flashpaq. I thought that would fix the issue for obvious reasons but it seems my traction control and I are destined to never get along. Any ideas? Can i unplug some wires and never have it bother me again? Will that leave the lights on the dashboard on forever? Some one please tell me there is a hope.
I think it fuse 6 you can pull to turn off end. It will leave light on as will kill switch! Just live with it or pul bulbs.
