Jeep Commander gets stuck in a little snow...

[Jays89YJ]

My '99 WJ was an animal in the snow. I was surprised by how well that 4WD system was in that Jeep.

Doesn't fawking matter that ground- it's below freezing out- that ground is solid... it's not like snow on top of sand... there's grass there too- my land just wasn't as torn up. Like I said- NOT EVEN CLOSE to being an issue... if it was close then maybe your argument holds water.

i think it's funny arguing about driving in snow......with people who don't live where it REALLY snows

Not as funny as someone getting angry over a minuscule topic.
or... the fact that the two people "arguing" no longer own Jeeps.

And yet it clearly performed far better... I didn't want to take all the credit, nor will I, but my WJ, ZJ, or XJ wouldn't have gotten stuck in the snow and dirt in the picture above... just wouldn't have happened- and those of us who have owned and driven such vehicles know it wouldn't even be close to getting stuck.

I think he must have gotten hung up on something and/or is a moron.

you can find exploder 8.8's in them w/ 3.55's, probably the most common ratio ive seen in them. some V6's had optional 4.10's, and even some V8's had 4.10's in em. hell....even some rangers had 4.56's stock in the 8.8 rear ends too...

That would rock. D35 is doing fine though. It is hard to hold back chirping the tires though.

friend who did the 5 speed swap in his '94 laredo ZJ.....has the factory tow package in his. the 4.0L ZJ came w/ 3.73's. He swapped in the 5 speed, and added 30's or 31's to it, and he has pulled 20/21mpg out of it on a trip.

Is that supposed to be impressive? My 4.7l 247 WJ did better than that and my '08 Silverado got that same mpg with 32s and it weighed 5400 lbs.

no, it was directed towards Hub

I do think that a manual swap is cool though.

Lolz, BOP is getting bashed on JU.

Not worth closing. Nothing offensive being posted.

Just in this thread? I didn't see anything I'd consider 'bashing' ?

I just thought it was funny that they totally proved you wrong.

Maybe we're looking at different threads?

That sounds about right, I get that highway with 3.55's and stock tires.

Obviously you're the one with reading comprehension problems.

I can't believe that mod hasn't done anything about it yet.
