Narrow vs Wide Track on a FSJ
Hello all,
I understand the physical differences between a narrow- and wide-track Jeep Cherokee but I am curious if the added width difference (I understand it to be four inches) translates to a noticeable difference in performance for both daily driving and/or off-road for the 1975-1983 models? I did some searches and all I could find was one reference to the added width was Jeep's attempt to satisfy a perceived public idea that the wide-track was more stable than the narrow. Is this correct? Are there no real differences in performance between the narrow- and wide-tracks?
Thanks all!
