Re: How does TJ Cruise Control behave?
Nah, it doesn't work under 35mph or so. I guess you could engage it and just
bounce over the rocks...

Re: How does TJ Cruise Control behave?
Seriously, many pieces of farm equipment, especially diesels which have a
built in governor, just use a throttle cable for this purpose. On a tracked
vehicle, or a logging skidder, they work really well for rock crawling. One
advantage, is that there is no hitting a bump and unintentionally mashing
your foot on the accelerator pedal, because the equipment that I am thinking
of, doesn't have one.

You need a hand throttle for things like that....

Re: How does TJ Cruise Control behave?
Yes! A hand throttle and a governor (like a John Deere farm tractor)
that you can engage and disengage when needed would be a
cool option for a Jeep.
Is anything available in the aftermarket world like that?
