They will not void an engine failure due to a suspension lift for example, lets be clear.
If the suspension is aftermarket your warranty issue will then be with your supplier.
Issue is that once you start changing things from standard you are at the dealer or chrysler's mercy when it comes to what they will do for you if there is a problem with the vehicle (even if what you have done has not caused the problem).

Hence why people who value their new car warranty need to think very carefully before they spend their money.

100% comes down to your dealer and their stance on modifications! I have met some service department monkeys who are capable of looking you in the eye and saying that the sun does not come out during the day if it meant they would win their argument.

None with the 2 jeep dealers I have had experiences with here in SE QLD thankfully.

That may be the way to go then.

Hey Ben, congrats on the soon to arrive new toy

I havent noticed if you are getting the 2 or 4 door - just thinking of the weight side of things. If you want a set of Mopar springs cheaper then the dealer, I have mine still sitting in the garage - they did 5,000km on mine before the missus made me pull them out! Still were sitting at the same height to the mm that it sat at when I installed them. They have a few wear marks on them where they sit on the spring pad (as in paint worn off) and apart from that I need to clen some dried mud off

Thanks mate...
Would there be any issues warranty wise with fitting 2nd handies? As you can probably tell, I'm very protective of it. Probably a bit paranoid after reading some of the problems some people have been having with their Jk's. Otherwise, would probably be interested...

It's the 2 door we're getting. Only me and the mrs so the unlimited was overkill considering the price difference.
