The Steve White Sales Manager said before I ordered that any lift on my new Jeep would void the warranty. I was trading in a lifted one on the new JK is why he brought it up.
I told him I thought the Jeep official line was if the lift caused the problem then it was my fault otherwise it should be repaired under warranty. He said no, they have no way of knowing if the lift caused it or not so you lift it, you own the issues from Steve White.

According to my "2007 Warranty Information" manual, Section 3. "What's Not Covered", subsection 3.1 "Modifications Not Covered", Para A states "Some Modifications Don't Void the Warranties But Aren't Covered. Certain changes that you might make to your vehicle do not, by themselves, void the warranties described in this booklet. Examples of some of these changes are: installing non-DaimlerChrystler Motors Company LLC ("DaimlerChrysler") parts, components or equipment..."
Subsection 3.2 "Modifications That WILL Void Your Warranties" basically only says that items that cause the odometer to become disconnected void the warranty.

lifts
I went to my local jeep dealer in savannah ga last night and they said they will honor the warranty on a jeep with up to a 3" lift if they install it. They already have two skyjacker lift kits on order for two other customers JK rubicons. It costs more to have them do it but at least if something breaks or they recall your JK for anything they will fix it!

I am new here, I probably wont be around much because I'm not into offroading, but I will be around the tech and whatnot because am a DIY'er all the way so I'll be troubleshooting or whatever with the rest of us. I just got my Sahara a week ago, no problems, Alot more happy getting into this from an '02 Audi.

Huffines of Denton, Texas said that anything under 4" of lift will not be affect by warranty. I asked him to provide it in writing, and am still waiting. I told him if he can prove it in writing I'll let him pick out the extended warranty for the JK.
