Especially for people who may be new to KJ's and have heard the chorus of "not real off roader!" etc.
An amazing car I think: I always suspect it was purposely held back by design to protect Wrangler market share/ prestige.
The weakest link in a the stock 4x4 is arguably the front propeller shaft. CV joint with light duty splines - why?
Too severe an angle of shaft and possible vibrations if a UJ was used? protection of weak front diff?
I have sheared the splines off on the front prop shaft on my 2.5 CRd, rendering the 4x4 useless. It's a cheap trail fix and doesn't take much storage space being prepared to replace one on the trail, but has anyone successfully replaced with a UJ (that hasn't been SFA'd?)
