Re: Made in Canada?
That WJ has lots of things to sorry about, being made in Canada isn't any of
them.
One of the things to look at is the viscous coupler in the tcase if you get
one with full time 4WD.

Indifferent. The US and Canadian auto industries were unified in
1966, long before NAFTA. Before that, the US companies had to
assemble Canadian versions on that side of Lake St. Clair. This led
to limited choice (just not worth it to do a Canadian line of a slow
seller) and oddball parts (make it fit stuff, rather than the correct
parts which were across the line and upon which they didn't want to
pay duty).
Since then, Canada (roughly) makes 10% of the total North American
supply, in both completed cars and parts terms. So, for example,
EVERY D-C minivan is made in Canada, but NO Neons are, and it all
works out in the end.
It is not possible to distinguish between a Canadian US-spec model and
a US US-spec model. They are identical, except for the first numeral
in the VIN.
