    To bad this does not work with the QDII system. I have broke a cv while while on the trail & it does suck. Now I am not sure about the QTII system but I do know from experience that if you break an cv on the QDII system that it will still move under its own power while in 4lo.

    I want stronger cv's so hope they do make them for the QDII


    I did send them a message to make sure that they do not make on that will work with the QDII system.

    Hmmm thats weird. I know for sure that the QT I guys are left stranded with a broken cv because I have witnessed it first hand. They dont have 4 low though. As far as the QT II guys, I know that if you drop the front drive shaft it does the same thing. Not allow the vehicle to move forward or backwards. Im not sure if I was in 4 low or 4 high when I experienced that at Rausch Creek. I havent broke a CV yet but based on what Ive heard from others with QT II your pretty much stranded. But even if it works in 4 low, you cant drive home from several hours away on dry pavement!!!

    IMHO this only moves the weak point to the next step in the drivetrain. I would rather carry an axel that I can quickly change rather than blow up my front diff or Tcase. I could be totally wrong, but an easy change weak link seens to be a good thing. I hope someone tries them though, especially if it is Trialbyfire or Valpacer

    Unless you have a QT I converted to a manually shifted QT II, locked in high now to get the low fully functioning......

    The QDII system will lock the front diff if you have a broken CV and will still move, no 4-low needed.

    Matt when I broke an cv axel it would not go at all unless it is 4lo. When it was in 4 hi all you hear was the broken cv spining from the diff side but would not move. The only time it would move is when it was locked in 4 lo.

    I was not saying to drive hours on pavment, but it got me back to camp & to where I could arange to get fixed.

    this is the reply I got from then about QDII systems.

    Hi Philip,

    We do have a set for the stock Jeep Grand Cherokee 05-10 that has Electronic Limited Slip Differential or the "Quadra-Drive II®." The set on the website is for stock axle replacement. If you need modified lengths, we would need to know in order to make shafts to the proper length. We do have the product on the web, but the price is not online yet. The cost is $1,995 for the set. See the link for more details.

    Regards,

    Dean

    Comment: Does your IFS CV axels work with a Jeep GC (05-10) that run the QDII system or does it only with the QT systems?
