Been using mine almost every day for the past couple weeks.. County is really cutting back on plowing.

More worried about mud. Considering i have no snow here. But when i lived in Kentucky i remembered when the county would cut back. There excuses were. our trucks are blocked in the yard. use your DAMN PLOW!

You mean "shift" into 4x4? no locking here LOL

XJ BoSS

You know what i meant. how many times do you have to actually use your 4wd

ive got a locker in the rear and have to be in some really bad stuff to put in 4, but most of the time the general will come right out of it in 2

Thats what i was thinking shouldnt really have a problem once i get guard dogs and a locker. But after this summer I plan on a 4wd swap.. I wish i could have bought a 4wd instead but this one was a good price good condition for the most part and only one quarter size of rust on the body and none on the frame or anything.

The only times ive used 4x4 is in mud and going up obsticles at the local 4x4 park

Driven 4 hrs daily, winter days - half of that in 4x4. Traction and stability great, gas bill sucks.

I got a locked 2wd on 5 inch lift and 32's. Trust me, you can make it if you dissconnect the swaybars and give her a little more gas than a 4x4 would

XJ BoSS

Yeah, just havent looked to see if a shop can weld it for me tho.
