Nope, and I'm sorry, but I don't even know what that means.

According to the 2000 Jeep Cherokee brouchure... "Part-Time 4X4 splits power
50/50 between the front and rear axles. Full-Time 4X4 splits the power 48
front/52 rear. This allows the Cherokee to be driven in Full-Time 4X4 in all
weather conditions, even dry pavement, without harming the drivetrain."

On tight turns you will notice a little binding in full-time...but 48/52 gives
the system enough play to not harm the linkage.

The Select-trac tansfer case is too large to fit into a Jeep Wrangler in it's
current form. Word is a new Slect-Trac II (even though the current version is
the 3rd version I believe?) will be fitted into 2005 Cherokee/Grand
Cherokee/Wagoneer.
