I know what you mean about the squirreliness, too... I had a Jeep TJ
that I had regeared to 4.11 and while he was in there I had the guy put
the Tru-Tracs front and rear and that thing was SCARY the next year up
at elk camp, on the snowy and frozen ridgeline roads up to the
trailheads... the Goodyear MT/R's didn't help; those things suck on
ice.
A well-implemented AWD with a limited slip between the front and rear
tires, like my '95 Land Cruiser has, is my favorite on slippery
stuff... that thing is just amazing.
