I suppose the question now is..... are jeepers generally pulling the air bag
fuses when off-road?

What about the ABS system, is that disabled in part time 4WD?

I've never had cause to do so. My pass airbag has a switch, and I've never
had a frontal collision off-road. On-road either, for that matter.

I believe ABS also does not operate under a certain speed, but I am not sure
what that speed is, IIRC it's about 10mph. Checked my FSM, no mention of
what the speed is. There is mention of a "G-Switch" which "provides addition
deceleration reference in 4wd" but it doesn't go into detail. No mention of
ABS being disabled in 4wd.

My ABS has never been a problem off-road, either; I don't ever remember it
kicking in when it would have been dangerous. For that matter, I don't
remember it kicking in ever on the trail, but probably has kicked in
occasionally, say if you're stuck, one wheel is spinning and you put on the
brakes, that would cause the ABS to pump. But it's pretty transparent.
