Moved to the appropriate section.


Are you 100% sure its not a 4x4? Is there a differential in the front?

It would be very helpful if you could give us a picture of the underside of the front of the jeep.

I beleave that after '04 some Grand(and Commanders) don't have a switch for 4 wheel drive in some packages. They have a "slip" sensitive transfercase. It decides if you need wheel or not.

All you need to do is look under it for the front drive shift if you see one than that's why, if not your being had..

I own a commander and there is a lil switch next to the gear shifter that will let you go to four low other than that it is all time 4 wheel drive. the switch is chrome just to the bottom right of the regular gear shifter. The grand cherokee should have similiar interior from what i have seen. Of cousre just look to see if there is a diff up front and a t-case behind the tranny.
