STABILIZER/SWAY BAR SYSTEM — POWER WAGON ONLY
Your vehicle is equipped with an electronic disconnecting stabilizer/sway bar. This system allows greater front suspension travel in
off-road situations.
Due to the use of taller springs, this vehicle has an increased ride height of approximately
1.9 inches (48.3 mm) in the front and
1.5 inches (38.1 mm) in the rear. A major advantage to increasing ride height is the positive effect it has on approach/departure and break over angles.
This system is controlled by the electronic control sway bar switch located below the instrument panel.
Push the SWAY BAR switch to activate the system. Push the switch again to deactivate the system. The “Sway Bar Indicator Light” (located in the instrument cluster) will illuminate when the bar is disconnected. The “Sway Bar Indicator Light” will flash during activation
transition, or when activation conditions are not met. The stabilizer/sway bar should remain in on-road mode during normal driving conditions.
To disconnect the stabilizer/sway bar, shift to either 4WD High or 4WD Low and push the SWAY BAR button to obtain the Off-Road position page 168. The “Sway Bar Indicator Light” will flash until the stabilizer/sway bar has been fully disconnected.
The stabilizer/sway bar may be torque locked due to left and right suspension height differ- ences. This condition is due to driving surface differences or vehicle loading. In order for the stabilizer/sway bar to disconnect/reconnect, the right and left halves of the bar must be aligned. This alignment may require that the vehicle be driven onto level ground or rocked
from side to side. 4
To return to the On-Road mode, push the SWAY BAR button again.
