Off-Road Driving with Your
Four
-Wheel-Drive Vehicle
This off-road guide is for vehicles that have
four
-wheel drive.
Also, see “Anti
-Lock Brakes” in the Index.
If your vehicle doesn’t have four
-wheel drive, you
shouldn’t drive off
-road unless you’re on a level,
solid surface.
Off
-road driving can be great fun. But it does have
some definite hazards. The greatest of these is the
terrain itself.
“Off
-roading” means you’ve left the great North
American road system behind. Traffic lanes aren’t
marked. Curves aren’t banked. There are no road signs.
Surfaces can be slippery, rough, uphill or downhill.
In short, you’ve gone right back to nature.
Off
-road driving involves some new skills. And that’s
why it’s very important that you read this guide. You’ll
find many driving tips and suggestions. These will help
make your off
-road driving safer and more enjoyable.
If you think you will need some more ground clearance
at the front of your vehicle, you can easily remove the
front bumper lower air dam.
The front bumper lower air dam is held in place by a
series of push pins located around the lower edge of the
front bumper. The push
-pins are accessible from
underneath the front bumper.
