Before You Go Off-Roading
There are some things to do before you go out. For
example, be sure to have all necessary maintenance and
service work done. Check to make sure all underbody
shields (if so equipped) are properly attached. Be sure
you read all the information about your four-wheel-drive
vehicle in this manual. Is there enough fuel? Is the spare
tire fully in ated? Are the uid levels up where they
should be? What are the local laws that apply to
off-roading where you’ll be driving? If you don’t know, you
should check with law enforcement people in the area.
Will you be on someone’s private land? If so, be sure to
get the necessary permission.
Loading Your Vehicle for Off-Road
Driving
There are some important things to remember about
how to load your vehicle.
The heaviest things should be on the load oor and
forward of your rear axle. Put heavier items as far
forward as you can.
Be sure the load is secured properly, so driving on
the off-road terrain doesn’t toss things around.
{CAUTION:
•Cargo on the loadfloor piled higher than
the seatbacks can be thrown forward
during a sudden stop. You or your
passengers could be injured. Keep cargo
below the top of the seatbacks.
•Unsecured cargo on the loadfloor can be
tossed about when driving over rough
terrain. You or your passengers can be
struck byflying objects. Secure the cargo
properly.
•Heavy loads on the roof raise the vehicle’s
center of gravity, making it more likely to
roll over. You can be seriously or fatally
injured if the vehicle rolls over. Put heavy
loads inside the cargo area, not on the
roof. Keep cargo in the cargo area as far
forward and low as possible.
