Back end fish tail during 4wd starts in Snow
So is this a case of the "Get Stuck Anywheres" I have on my car or is there a 4wd problem.
I'm used to a big heavy FWD Montero with BFG A/Ts The Jeep definitly handles way better in 4wd then 2wd so I know 4wd is working. However, it does still slip a bit but the 4wd does a good job catching it. This morning a bunch of times when leaving a stop light I accelerate and the back end spins. I thought in 4wd the front was supposed to pull more. I laid off the pedal a little bit and it went fine. But still I wasn't really applying to much gas when it was spinning. Does this sound like a 4wd issue, a common jeep issue, a GSA tires issue, or another combo. Thanks! I wanna get BFG's on this thing but I also want to buy a flat LCD TV

You could try lowering the tire psi.?
Take off on 2nd gear? Perhaps reevaluate your driving skills/habits?

got my BFGs just in time.
 I've been hearing about how bad the GSAs are, so i decided to move when i lifted it and got new rubber instead waiting for the tread to wear out on the stock tires, even though there was only 22k on them
