2017 Tradsman. 5.7, 3.92 rear, towing package, HD suspension, White, 4x4, under 15,000 miles.

'03 can just be a hunt truck now, unless the right money comes along. Time to start doin mods and make it mine.

When you get tired of the 4x4 not working the way you'd like (like your 03 did) shoot me a message and I'll hook you up with a transfer case lock switch. Enjoy the new rig buddy! [emoji106]

For how I use my truck, the transfer case is fine. Never an issue.

The 03 is a great t case, the new one you'll see what i mean when you're in mud or snow. Rear tires have to be spinning before the front tires will enguge.
Ohhhh, gotcha. That's crazy. What do I need to fix that?

If he has a tradesman. There is a chance he doesn't have the full time (44-44) t-case.

Brandon, does the switch mess with the ABS? When I had my ZJ, my ABS was useless with the part-time 4x4. I would switch of it when I would get into slick braking surfaces.

I believe the newer 44-45 addresses the braking issue. I just don't want to deal with the braking issues of the older part-time systems.
