How does Jeep YJ 4wd work?

Do you need a track bar on a YJ?
It doesn’t need it. The wider springs on the front of the YJ make it more stable than the CJ’s before it which had no trackbar. Years ago we did this on a YJ with a 2.5″ Rancho lift. You can feel the difference, but it is not bad.
Why do Jeep Wranglers ride so rough?

YJ’s are different from their CJ predecessor, as well as the new ’97-’02 TJ Wranglers and 91 and up XJ’s, by having a two-piece axle shaft on the passenger side. Shifting into 4wd is done through the console shifter sending an impulse to the front motor via the vacuum lines.
