[QUOTE="DKSDonnie, post: 1621582, member: 102446"] I believe it but was it a Rubicon or a standard Wrangler. Rubicons cost much more money but have lockers for diffs where the standard Sahara's and the like have Command Trac usually without LSD unless it was ordered as an option. They have BLD and electronic traction control which is nothing more than an open diff that applies brake to the spinning wheel which transfers the power to the wheel with traction. Nothing that we all know as experienced 4wheelers do naturally. My Ram has the same thing. But, you still only have power going to 1 wheel because it's an open diff at any given time. All these electronics do what we all do only it does it through computers for the everyday driver that doesn't know how to drive efficiently with 4wd. Just like anti-lock brakes. It pumps the brakes for you just like we learned back in the day to do with the brake pedal when you lose traction and sliding when trying to stop. Most people freak out and slam on the brakes and don't let off. The computer does it for you. Yes, the Jeep puts 50% of torque to the front and rear driveshafts, what 4wd doesn't DUH! [/QUOTE]
