How do Johnson Rods Work
Johnson Rods work with in conjunction your factory airbag springs to control the height of your vehicle by adjusting the height sensor level with a shorter rod. The result is that your vehicle will ride 2.5 inches higher in each mode of operation as compared to the stock mode heights.
Will I still be able to control the height of my vehicle using the Terrain Response System?
Yes, all functionality is maintained and the vehicle height modes can be controlled using the terrain response system from inside your vehicle.
Will the speed limitation for off road mode still be activated?
Yes, when in Johnson Rod off road mode (extended stock mode) the 25 mph speed limitation will still apply. However, an added benefit is that while driving in Johnson Rod normal mode (stock off road mode) you will be able to exceed the 25 mph limit. This is a big benefit on bumpy dirt roads or moderate trails when a faster speed is desired.
Do I have to keep the rods on full time?
No, you do not have to keep them on full time. Many owners use them just for off road trips and change the rods out the night before or at the trail head. With practice you can change the rods out in ten minutes. However, some owners want larger tires or don’t want the inconvenience of changing them out and therefore elect to keep the rods on full time. In that case I recommend an alignment to adjust the camber if you drive it daily. This will save on tire wear.
Will the rods affect my factory warranty?
When you modify your stock vehicle that possibility exists. I have taken my vehicle into the dealer for service and have had no issues. That being said, every dealer is different. I have been told that some vehicle owners put the stock rods back on at the time of service to avoid warranty questions. However, as the vehicle owner and purchaser of Johnson Rods, you are solely responsible for modifying your vehicle and must accept any associated risks or problems that may arise from your decision to use them.
