Hi,
I wonder if someone would explain to me the differences between Jeep XJ 4WD and 2WD transmissions?
I ask because I have a 2WD XJ. I got it for $400. It runs strong. It has low mileage. I've done bunch of work to it, including making the doors removable. The body is in great shape. I was thinking of putting Dana 44 front and rear axles to turn it into an off roader.
I know somebody's going to say "don't bother, go out and buy one that's already 4WD." And I might do that. But that is not the purpose of this post.
I like wrenching on Jeeps!
I like learning new things!
I like challenges!
This is not about saving money. This is a personal challenge. This is about doing something with my son, spending time together, both of uf us learning new things together and achieving a goal.
So, I'm curious what the differences is between the two types of transmissions. And if I went this route, would I need to replace the existing tranny?
Thanks,
Chris
