But were NV147 offered with V8? I think it was 4.0 option only.

No way you're pinning the NP147 on the 4.0L...we're too cool to be sporting that TC!

You could get it on both, thankfully only in late 04 while they were testing it for the 3.7L WK.

how do you determine which TC you have? I have full-time 4WD and just thought that it was called Quadro-Trac. Is there a way of determining the model?

my friend is looking to buy his first car, I think I've got him talked into an older grand cherokee. How miserable is a full time 4 wheel drive 6 cylinder grand cherokee? I like my 4.0 in my xj but I think in the slightly heavier zj with full time 4 wheel drive it would suck. what do you think? obviously a v-8 would be better, but its all going to be about what he can afford.

Most I-6's should have a part time case.

so far we have looked at three and all were 4.0s and two were full time, maybe just chance, we're going to keep looking, all were either to nice or to crappy.
