Jeep warranty?
Will Jeep cancel your warranty if you install a leveling kit? I want to put on Duratrac 285/70R 17s on my 2010 Unlimited Sport but am worried about rubs without a lift. I will be using stock wheels for now. would the Taraflex leveling kit be eneough? I am on moderate trails and logging roads mostly and no crawling.

planman covered this very well...
I'll reiterate that if you have good dealer, make a genuine effort to build a relationship with the manager, service writers and when possible, the mechanics.
I have done this with my Jeep dealer and it has already paid rewards. My dealer (Smithaven Chrysler Jeep Dodge) works well with owners of modded Jeeps.
Likewise, I have a good relationship with our local Suzuki dealer. My wife's little SUV suffered a broken serpentine belt as she backed out of the driveway a week ago, Tuesday. Because I was already at work, my wife had it towed to the dealer. I called the service dept, and we discussed the problem. I fully expected to pay for the belt and labor. However, the service manager wrote it up as a broken tensioner and replaced the belt and tensioner under warranty. One of those wink-nod deals.
I had two pizzas and three 2 liter sodas delivered to the service desk just before noon. I called and told the manager that this was a small thank you for their kindness.
The best $40 I have spent in a long time....
