go out. For example, be sure to have all
necessary maintenance and service work
done. Be sure
to
read all the information
about your four-wheel drive vehicle in
this manual.
Is
there enough fuel?
Is
the
spare tire fully inflated? Are the fluid
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

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 floor 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.
