So, tell us more. We know it’s got the 4.0 HO, how about the transmission? Transfer case (part time/full time)? Axles, gear ratio? You can get away with not knowing these things as a Jeep nOOb but you’ve got your homework assignment.

Well done, that should be a very solid vehicle. Glad my odd tip helped, it's the little things that sometimes help you find a jem.
Bet you're glad the hunt is over, that by itself can get exhausting. |

That silver Xterra did end up selling over the weekend which surprised me. It just seemed like it had seen its fair share of abuse and it was going to need new tires fairly soon as well. I suppose that's why it was priced where it was at. |

Selec-trac has a 2wd drive option. The full time 4wd option is nice on those days that it's slick in spots. You just put it in full time and forget it. You don't have to keep shifting in and out of 4wd like a part time system.
I had it in my XJ and it's still my favorite system from any of the others I've had. |

Unit bearing front end, spinning that whole assembly is costing MPG even when it isn’t engaged.
There are conversions to install manual lock out hubs but they’re expensive and not available for every model.
