Command Trac.............. -Stronger -only can use 4wd on loose slippery surfaces(wet pavement is not slippery enough) -mechanical linkage between shifter and shift fork Select Trac............. -weaker then the command trac -can use Full Time 4wd on any surface including dry pavement -has shifting(not coming out of 4wd) problems since no mechanical link between shifter and shift fork |

Let me add this, I read it out of one of my 4x4 books. Comparing internals only, not shifting, the Selec Trac is stronger, but has a weak shifting mechanism and less aftermarket support. |

Well, you'd have to add a center diff for the Full Time option to work... |

probably a stupid question.. but i dont think i ever really wondered about that till now. thanks Look under the KJ (drivers side) at t-case and read the tag. It'll say 231 or 242 on it.
