It may not change the way the trailer behaves but it will on how the Jeep behaves.

I think the printed the price wrong. No way I would spend even half that for a camper like that.

I disagree. I have selectable lockers in my jeep. I can tell you 4wd (with open diff) give you better traction than locked two wheel drive. In situation such as ice chains on an open diff 2wd car may do better than 4wd even locked, but for the most part that is not the case.

High clearance is not specific to AWD/4WD. In some Jeep models (maybe only in the past) had part time and full time 4wheel drive. Part time locked the center TCase for off road only (part time use). Fulltime could be used full time use and depending on slippage the tcase would "lock" and...

How did it seem compared the similar looking military fuel cans. Did it seem strong enough to able to be dropped form a few feet without breaking, did it leak with the top on?

I should have been more specific. When I said seam like that I meant not as pronounced or sloppy looking. If you read the requirements and description for the military ones it just seems you're not getting that for 15 bucks, but who knows. I would be nice to be able to get good fuel cans for...

Scepter is not showing these cans on their homepage. Based on the cost of the cans above I seriously doubt they are anything close to the Military ones they have. These cans above clearly have a seam down the middle. I have a few Military ones of my own and while in the Army I couldn't begin...

I have an 04. That generation had a towing capacity up to 7K for the 4wd with the V8 *when properly equipped. I would agree with the above statement. If you are going to regularly towing even 80% of the max load for much distance of your vehicle max capacity I would look at other vehicles...

I have a question for those who tow a trailer and have a heavier full size spare, heavier bumper and aftermarket tire carrier. With the spare tire, the appropriate bumper and tire carrier you can be adding a noticeable amount or weight behind the axle. This is basically what would be...

Possible, but not very likely with a vehicle as small as a wrangler. If it where you would hear about it. I have never heard of it as an issue, maybe others have? read 14, 15 and 16 twice: http://www.firestik.com/Tech_Docs/63Things.htm another good read: http://www.olypen.com/craigh/CBPrimmer.htm

Is there a V6 option with the package you are talking about? I have a 2004 with the 4.0 V6 and it has more than enough power, even towing my camper. On the freeway I do better than that. I live in the country and do very little city driving so not sure about city mpg.

Having extra traction at the flip of a switch is a great thing. You just never know were the trail may take you.

If lockers are a concern then I assume offroading is in the future. The Jeep Rubicon has dual lockers.

I watched a few "off-road" videos. If off-roading is in the plans I would not consider the outback. I don't see how the OB would be contender with the Jeep or 4Runner after watching this video.

its a 2004 sprot V6 SR5

Land Cruisers are nice, but use more gas. I am not familiar with the other vehicles you mention. I have a 2500lb (dry weight) hybrid camper we tow with the 4Runner and it does a great job with that. Off-road the 4 runner is too low and just seems the underside and the top side are more...

I had a Jeep Grand Cherokee and got rid of it and now have the 4Runner. I needed a tow vehicle for a lighter weight camper, and the Grand sucked and the Toyota is great. I am not a Jeep guy or a Toyota guy, each have their uses for me. I read through the post and the Subaru was brought up. I...

A little more work up front and you have to lower your skid plate but still pretty cool. And then the alignment thing. If I was looking for a longer distance expedition vehicle and only moderate wheeling the 4Runner would probably be at the top of the list. If I was starting over and building...

How can you lift the front of a 4Runner with spacers?

Of course it is all opinion. You just don't have the right couch.
