    All Wheel Drive = Full Time 4WD?

    I just wanted to add that if you want to understand how the 4x4 system works you need to understand how a differential works since there is one in each axle and one in your transfer case if you have 4FT.

    Should I buy a KJ?

    I used PT on the highway all the time in winter but then again i live in an area where the highways get covered in snow/ice. Any vehicle i've driven in starts to feel uncomfortable after awhile (i hate the dodge caliber seats). I've never really been too uncomfortable in the kj but i have the...

    Should I buy a KJ?

    Okay, it sounds like you've ruled out a patriot (which is what i would suggest for fuel economy), anything new, any car, a rav4 or crv, and you want FT 4wd. It sounds like you've already made up your mind what you want. Go ahead and get the liberty (or a diesel liberty). While it is not the...

    I'm thinking this over...

    You're selling a 6 year old reliable vehicle for peanuts to buy a 13 year old unreliable vehicle. Doesn't it makes more sense to keep the kj and use it as a daily driver. Then save up and buy a cheap xj that you can mod?

    Winter Wheelin

    A favorite of mine: Try going up steeper hills in the winter. You have to finesse the throttle. When you get stuck back up a few inches and try again. I've made it to the top of snow covered steep hills one inch at a time. Use as little throttle as you need as more throttle equals tires...

    Winter Wheelin

    Winter off roading can be fun and if the ground is frozen you do not have to worry about mud or soft ground. Best is hard packed snow trails.

    This is how much money I can expect to pay for OME Coil Springs,etc.

    For that much money you might as well get a Frankenlift from All J's. That's what i did. Even, if you don't want that much lift you could strip the frankenlift and create an ome lift from it.

    You Know You're Driving A KJ When.......
