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 are properly
attached. Remove any removable side steps.
SeeAssist Steps on page 338. Make sure any
equipment you may need — rst aid kit, cell phone,
ashlight, etc. — is securely stored in the vehicle.
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 inated? Are the
uid levels up where they should be? What are the
local laws that apply to off-roading where you will be
driving? If you do not 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
{CAUTION:
Cargo on the load oor 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 load oor can
be tossed about when driving over
rough terrain. You or your passengers
can be struck by ying 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.
318

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 in the rear area, as far forward
as you can.
Be sure the load is secured properly, so
driving on the off-road terrain does not
toss things around.
You will nd other important information in this
manual. SeeLoading Your Vehicle on page 362
andTires on page 448.
Environmental Concerns
Off-road driving can provide wholesome and
satisfying recreation. However, it also raises
environmental concerns. We recognize these
concerns and urge every off-roader to follow these
basic rules for protecting the environment:
Always use established trails, roads, and areas
that have been specially set aside for public
off-road recreational driving; obey all
posted regulations.
Avoid any driving practice that could damage
the environment — shrubs, owers, trees,
grasses — or disturb wildlife. This includes
wheel-spinning, breaking down trees, or
unnecessary driving through streams or over
soft ground.
Always carry a litter bag — make sure all
refuse is removed from any campsite
before leaving.
Take extreme care with open res where
permitted, camp stoves, and lanterns.
Never park your vehicle over dry grass or
other combustible materials that could
catch re from the heat of the vehicle’s
exhaust system.

4. Thread the knob through the remaining
hole — rst into the rocker panel protector
and then into the threaded hole in the
side step bracket.
Notice:Threading the knob into the side step
and then into the rocker panel will not
secure the step. The step could fall off the
vehicle and be damaged. Always thread
the knob through the rocker panel rst. After
the knob is installed, try moving the step
left and right to be sure the step is secure.5. Hand-tighten the knob by turning it clockwise
until it is seated against the rocker panel
protector bracket and then tighten it to 10 lb ft
(13.5
Y) with the tool as shown.

Winter Driving
Here are some tips for winter driving:
Have your vehicle in good shape for winter.
You may want to put winter emergency
supplies in your vehicle.
Also seeTires on page 448.Include an ice scraper, a small brush or broom,
a supply of windshield washer uid, a rag,
some winter outer clothing, a small shovel, a
ashlight, a red cloth, and a couple of reective
warning triangles. And, if you will be driving under
severe conditions, include a small bag of sand,
a piece of old carpet, or a couple of burlap bags to
help provide traction. Be sure you properly
secure these items in your vehicle.
353

If you put things inside your vehicle — like
suitcases, tools, packages, or anything
else — they go as fast as the vehicle goes.
If you have to stop or turn quickly, or if there
is a crash, they will keep going.
{CAUTION:
Things you put inside your vehicle can
strike and injure people in a sudden stop
or turn, or in a crash.
Put things in the cargo area of your
vehicle. Try to spread the weight
evenly.
Never stack heavier things, like
suitcases, inside the vehicle so that
some of them are above the tops of
the seats.
Do not leave an unsecured child
restraint in your vehicle.
When you carry something inside the
vehicle, secure it whenever you can.
Do not leave a seat folded down
unless you need to.There is also important loading information for
off-road driving in this manual. See “Loading Your
Vehicle for Off-Road Driving” underOff-Road
Driving on page 317.
Add-On Equipment
When you carry removable items, you may need
to put a limit on how many people you can carry
inside your vehicle. Be sure to weigh your vehicle
before you buy and install the new equipment.
Notice:Overloading your vehicle may cause
damage. Repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Do not overload your vehicle.
Remember not to exceed the Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR) of the front or rear axle.
The Cargo Weight Rating (CWR) is the maximum
weight of the load your vehicle can carry. It does not
include the weight of the people inside. But you can
gure about 150 lbs (68 kg) for each seat.
The total cargo load must not be more than your
vehicle’s CWR.

Dinghy Towing
Use the following procedure to tow your vehicle:
1. Shift the transmission to PARK (P).
2. Turn the engine off, but leave the ignition in
ACCESSORY.
3. Firmly set the parking brake.
4. Securely attach the vehicle being towed to the
tow vehicle.
{CAUTION:
Shifting a full-time four-wheel-drive
vehicle’s transfer case into NEUTRAL can
cause your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P). You or others
could be injured. Make sure the parking
brake is rmly set before you shift the
transfer case to NEUTRAL.
5. Shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL (N).
SeeFull-Time Four-Wheel Drive on
page 128for the proper procedure to select
the NEUTRAL position for your vehicle.6. Release the parking brake only after the
vehicle being towed is rmly attached to
the towing vehicle. You can use your vehicle’s
front mounted receiver with the proper
accessories to tow it. See “Front Mounted
Receiver” underIf Your Vehicle is Stuck
in Sand, Mud, Ice, or Snow on page 357.
7. Turn the ignition to ACCESSORY.
8. Disconnect the battery if you are going to tow
for long distances or long periods of time.
When towing your vehicle for extended periods of
time, start your vehicle as often as possible to
prevent battery drain. This should only be
done when the tow vehicle is parked.
Dolly Towing
Your vehicle cannot be dolly towed. If you must
tow your vehicle behind another, use the
dinghy towing procedure listed previously.
Notice:Dolly towing your vehicle will damage
drivetrain components. Do not dolly tow
your vehicle.
