ABS While Turning, Please Help!
Hi everyone,
My issue today is that whenever I am making a turn at over 25 mph (for example: on a curved interstate onramp) my ABS kicks on and forces my jeep to slow down. Is this normal? I am not going fast enough to roll it, at least I don't think so.
Not sure if mods affect this, but all I have are the Teraflex Monster Trackbar and 33"tires. My Jeep is a 2007 2dr X.
Thanks for any and all help!

This is an issue a lot of us deal with. Once you change the geometry of the suspension and steering, the ABS will fire in turns that are completely safe. There is a way to shut it off compeltely but I have yet to try that. I just deal with it and have learned to drive without firing it on the ramps I use the most.

Hmm. Well I try to go <25mph on ramps but I usually end up pissing everyone off behind me. Is this something a dealership would notice if and when I were to sell the Jeep, that would affect the resale value?

there are two methods to get rid of that.... steering wheel dance OR cut a wire and install a switch.
check to make sure your steering wheel is centered FIRST. if it's not, recenter it and try the turns again.
