You probably aren't as safe with a roll cage and 5-point seat belts as
someone with an airbag and stock seat belts in some kinds of highway
accidents, and if you disable the airbag and put in a roll-cage and
5-point seat belts and later sell the vehicle to someone and that
person is involved in an accident on the highway and their passenger
is injured... then you might be getting a phone call you don't want to
get. Seems like the best thing to do would be fill out the forms if
needed to make it legal, then disable the airbag after installing the
roll-cage and 5-point seat belts, and then when you go to sell the
vehicle later, re-enable the air-bag. I don't think anyone would
argue with you that a full roll-cage and 5-point seatbelt aren't as
safe on the trails as a stock seatbelt and airbag.

Re: Disabling passenger airbag on '97 TJ?
Jeff, offroading with even some major hits isn't going to set the air bag
off. To disable the airbags, there are two fuses behind the glove
compartment and BOTH of them must be removed. The two fuses are backup to
each other, they are not in one particular airbag's circuitry.
Being in 4Low does not disable the TJ's air bag circuitry.

Re: Disabling passenger airbag on '97 TJ?
Jeff, offroading with even some major hits isn't going to set the air bag
off. To disable the airbags, there are two fuses behind the glove
compartment and BOTH of them must be removed. The two fuses are backup to
each other, they are not in one particular airbag's circuitry.
Being in 4Low does not disable the TJ's air bag circuitry.
