Re: Quadra-Trac Versus Quadra-Drive
 

In the 70's Jeep had Quadra-Trac transfer case, which was chain drive,
full-time 4WD, with a high and low range planetart reduction unit, and a
"emergency" drive capability (which locked the limited slip differential in
the transfer case)

Later on came the Selec-Trac system which is a full-time/part-time transfer
case with shift on the fly. (The was also a Command-Trac part time transfer
case)

This was optional on XJ Cherokees

Then came Quadratrac II on the Grand Cherokee, which is the same operation
as Selec-Trac, but a few different transfer case models were used over the
years.

Quadra Drive is the latest system which uses the same transfer case as
QuadraTrac II and adds limited slip/locking gerorotor differentials front
and rear, and is quite a capable system.
