Sure, did it all the time when I worked for the Forest Service because they were to cheap to provide a Jeep.

Yeah, I certainly can't make fun of any 2wd Jeep owners. They still own Jeeps.

I was just completely unaware that Jeeps even came in 2wd until I started looking to buy one.

sry to hate on jeep, but why wood anyone put d35 in ANY truck?

but the 4.0l and trans makes up for it..

knowing that i can get 250K+ out of my jeep deff make me feel good about this truck

i had a MINT 1995.5 isuzu rodeo S.. tho the 3.2L had top end probs... the trans tc and the d44 where GOLD they even made a 10 and 12 bolt that had a third member

but being abel to hit 6500+ rpm in OD... there just notting like it

there are trucks out there that are just as capable as are jeeps but we were the first to do it and did it the best

I have a friend with a Blazer and he even accidentally refers to his Blazer as "my Jeep" sometimes since he's so used to me saying it.

There is nothing like a jeep. The new ones make me sick though. Too big and just dont have the soul of an off roader like they used too. Just a shame. And who the hell ever thought a four door wrangler was a good idea. Even scramblers were two door and the were a ton longer than a cj. Just my two cents.
