Jeep Wrangler: Towing Requirements / Towing Requirements — Tires
- Proper tire inflation pressures are essential
to the safe and satisfactory operation of your
vehicle.
- Check the trailer tires for proper tire inflation
pressures before trailer usage.
- Check for signs of tire wear or visible tire
damage before towing a trailer.
- Replacing tires with a higher load carrying
capacity will not increase the vehicle's GVWR
and GAWR limits.
To promote proper break-in of your new vehicle
drivetrain components, the following guidelines
are recommended:
WARNING!
Improper towing can lead to a collision...
Do not interconnect the hydraulic brake
system or vacuum system of your vehicle
with that of the trailer. This could cause inadequate
braking and possible personal injury...
Other information:
Park on a firm, level surface. Avoid ice or
slippery areas.WARNING!
Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of
the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull far
enough off the road to avoid being hit when
operating the jack or changing the wheel...
The driver's seat height can be raised or
lowered by using the ratcheting handle, located
on the outboard side of the seat. Pull upward on
the handle to raise the seat, push downward on
the handle to lower the seat. Several strokes
may be necessary to achieve the desired
position...
