Reviews / Votes
Jeep 4x4 Performance Handbook offers just the help you need to incorporate superior aftermarket components on your vehicle. The book includes a wealth of information on most Jeep models for both the experienced and beginners alike ... One of the reasons we chose to highlight this book among the hundreds like it is that it was written by an experienced four-wheeler ... Reading his tips throughout the book reveals that he isn't just repeating stories heard on the trail: He shares his own experiences." - 4-Wheel Drive Sport UtilityMore details
