So I have had lift on for just over a week. Been doing mostly highway/in town driving. Up until today, I had the ESP come on only twice. Both times were in the same place, I just figured it was from where the road pitched the wrong way in a curve. But today, me and some buddies went on a cruise through winding mountain roads. OMG the ESP drove me nuts! The antilocks would kick too, unless brakes acting goofy is part of the ESP feature. Anti lock light never came on. It seemed to always do it in left hand turns. I have done a lot of searching, found a few things but nothing that helped. Myself and a dealer tech buddy put the lift on. Then we took the jeep to his dealer ship and aligned it. It was within spec before we even started, but he tweaked it to get it perfect. The particulars:

37" toyos
20x9 wheels/4.5bs
Tire pressure 30psi
Steering Wheel - straight (or really,really close to straight. It looks perfect)
Caster Angle 3.4 deg. (maybe not enough? read it should be 5 deg?)
Steering Wheel Dance - tried but didn't work.
Superchips - correct spedo to 37s
Superchips - disabled TMPS


I have a dealer appointment tomorrow to install new intermediate steering shafts because of the steering clunk. Is there something they can check maybe while they're under the hood?

I am not too fond of the idea of cutting the purple wire with the blue stripe either. I know that would disable ESP, but would the idiot dash light be on all the time?

There is a procedure in the manual to permanently disable esp. Might be worth a shot.

 

i disabled my esp with the manual directions also. it took a few tries to get it done but its nice to not it glitchy. good luck on that

 

I don't have a manual. Could someone post please?

Thanks

 

Is there anyplace I can download a manual? I would rather have an electronic version, it makes searching for something faster.

 

Got mine from the Jeep website

For Owners -> Vehicle Info/Owner Service manual -> plug in the year and model, and download

 

Kewl. thanks, i'll check it out.
