Mine is the Willys Sport package. No power windows, no heated seats, very small digital screen. V6 auto. Shift into 4x4 on the floor with the lever….clunk, yup I’m in 4x4.

Re: New rubber on the Jeep...
So it's a mechanically shifted transfer case? I was concerned about the longevity of the electric switched transfer case in my '97 Ranger but I haven't had any issues with it so far. Several years ago I did start having problems with getting the automatic locking hubs to disengage. Replaced them with manual locking hubs, new auto hubs were very expensive. If the weather is snowy I just leave them engaged so I don't have to get out to engage them if I need 4wd. I'm running Blizzak snow tires and they're so good I really don't need 4wd if there's just a couple of inches of snow.

Yup it’s mechanical. I wanted the least amount of tech and bs gizmos available.

Re: New rubber on the Jeep...
My kind of vehicle RR! My '03 Tundra has manual door locks, manual windows, manual trans and low maintenance two wheel drive with V-6 engine. It does have a good stereo radio and a very nice bench seat with a large fold down arm rest and a tilt wheel. It also has the rubber floor covering that I much prefer over hard to clean carpeting when going to coal yards. 212,000 miles and the rubber floor shows zero wear. The perfect truck for my use.RanchRoper wrote: ↑Tue Aug 29, 2023 10:52 amYup it’s mechanical. I wanted the least amount of tech and bs gizmos available.

My '53 had no floor covers and had drain holes. If you were reasonably careful about not spraying the dash you could wash the floors at the carwash or with a hose.
