Jeep offers various 4x4 systems to match different needs and drivers
Rock-Trac
Cue the ‘Toolman Taylor’ macho laugh-grunts. Perhaps the world’s foremost 4x4 system where real all-terrain and all-surface capability is concerned, Jeeps Rock-Trac system utilizes a unique transfer case, heavy-duty axles and an extreme low-range for maximum grip.

Additionally, a set of sway-bar decouplers and front and rear locking differentials are on standby for exceptionally sloppy conditions.

The Rock-Trac system is standard on the Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. This system could nearly climb a vertical wall-- so a wimpy blizzard or icy sideroad doesn’t even get it excited.

Both Command Trac and Rock Trac are paired to a V6 engine via either an automatic or manual transmission. Though the stick-shift is becoming a rare piece of hardware these days, Jeep owners still like them-- so they’re still available.
