A Show About Jeeps!

Episode 880 – Famous for Freedom!

Jeep Rubicon 392 Transfer Case

The Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 392 transfer case has clutches.  Four Auto takes care of all that nasty thinking that people with lesser Jeeps have to do.  The clutch pack takes wear and tear as it is engaged for normal driving, 2WD is NOT available.

To prolong the life of your clutch pack, and your transfer case ability to be used for 4wd.

Using the Tazer Mini (Zautomotive) will allow you to put your Jeep Rubicon 392 transfer case into 2wd completely taking the clutch pack out of the equation.

4wd hi (4h part-time), or 4wd lo (4h lo) lock the clutch pack into place.

Full traction control disabled (excl. 4XE):

PRESS AND HOLD THE TRACTION BUTTON FOR 5

SECONDS to fully disable TC and ABS. Shut off and

restart the Jeep to reenable. This will force the 392 into

2WD. Tap again to restore 4WD.
