Re: 04 Jeep Liberty.
I believe that it is in full time 4WD only and not part time 4WD. I say this
because there was not enough wheelspin on the front wheels which looked
firmly planted to me, if the centre diff was locked like it should have been
there should have been more action from the front end. I know real Jeeps
don't have full time 4WD but please have a closer look.
You guy's really should drive a KJ you would be surprised. I bought mine
because I do a lot of motorway driving but it has proven itself to be very
capable in the limited amount of off-road work I've done in it so far.
I have always slammed IFS 4WDrives but for a lot of people a KJ will do all
they want plus some, it all comes down to personal choice.

Re: 04 Jeep Liberty.
Jason,
I bought BFG KO's for my wives Liberty, now if I can just get her to let me
take it off road, I can see for myself how capable it is. The reason I
pushed her toward the Liberty is;
1) most capable 4x4 of the cutiies crowd (Rav4, Santa-fa, Escape, etc...)
2) towing capaticty
3) and she thought it was cute.
so far it at 40k we have not had any trouble with it and she seems to still
enjoy it.

I bought BFG KO's for my wives Liberty, now if I can just get her to let me
take it off road, I can see for myself how capable it is. The reason I
pushed her toward the Liberty is;
1) most capable 4x4 of the cutiies crowd (Rav4, Santa-fa, Escape, etc...)
2) towing capaticty
3) and she thought it was cute.
so far it at 40k we have not had any trouble with it and she seems to still
enjoy it.

Re: 04 Jeep Liberty.
Nope. You can't see the front left wheel well enough to be sure it was
firmly planted. But, you can tell from the cloud of dust that was generated
fron the left front of the vehicle that when the right rear was spinning,
the left front was spinning as well. That's what happens in those situations
with open diffs.
I'm not saying a Liberty isn't somewhat capable, but it has its
shortcomings. The one time I saw one off-road, it got hi-centered on a mound
of dirt that stock TJ's were clearing.
