12 bolt rear diff cover= QDII
10 bolt " " " =QTII

 

OK, that helps when I check them out in person, but not really for narrowing things down online.

You don't see a lot of pics of diff covers...lol.

Any other tell tale signs?

 

I'm pretty sure the only badging option is the "Trail Rated" badge that anyone can buy for $30 and that won't even tell you what 4WD system is installed.

 

Try WKjeeps website. Lots of info on there. It may be there somewhere.

 

There are only two ways to tell, count the bolts, or look at the badging under the t-handle for 4lo.. If it says QD-II then it most likely is, but the only way to truly verify is to count the bolts.

 

Agreed. Look for this:

 

I could be wrong but I thought the limiteds only came with QDII. The Laredo is where it was an option.

 

What hoaxci5 said. That is how I would go about it.

 

First is the QDII badge below the shifter assembly, unfortunately any 3rd party or shady dealer could slap that on for marketing and increased profits. The only true way to tell is to count the differential bolts.

 

"...I could be wrong but I thought the limiteds only came with QDII. ..."


QDII was available on all three GC models, not the SRT8 of course.

also, WK's with QTII or QDII are both Trail Rated. so, if you see a Trail Rated badge, that does not mean it has QDII, could have QTII.

to be sure: count the bolts on the rear diffy.

 

It says Quadradrive II by the gear shifter.

 

QDII has electronic diffs as well.

 

Also, Use a VIN number decoder:

That did show in the report that my XK had QD-II (12 bolts and badge at shifter) so that would be another alternative to actually looking at the vehicle while shopping online.

good lord, do a search guys - this seriously is like the 5th thread in about a month and a half about how to spot QDII

wkjeeps.com and the search function are your friend

sorry - :rantoff:

 

So I'm interested in a few 2008 WK CRDs, all have the QD2 badge below the shifter, all are "Limited". I ran a vin check on two of them and the build sheets look pretty much identical. Most importantly, both specify "AWB QUADRA-DRIVE 4WD SYSTEM" AND "DHX QUADRA-TRAC II FULL-TIME,ACTIVE 4WD" as well as "MZB QUADRA DRIVE BADGE"

So I'm confused. Did they actually ship these with QT2 but with QD2 badges?!??! Or is QD2 like an add-on for the QT2? Here are the two VIN lookups:

QT2 was standard on the CRD and v8 WKs . QD2 was the add on option, so if the build sheet lists both, then you have a QD2 jeep.

 

1st link is to a V6 model according to that site. No QDii for V6 models. 2nd link is not going to a specific VIN.

QT2 is the tcase, QD2 is the diffs. From my understanding all QD2 equipped WKs will list both.
