well all fwd and awd cars use Constant velocity joints for the steering, even 4 wheel drive vehicles like the Grand cherokee, (so it must be tough) but the latest Wrangler still uses U joints for the steering, one time i forgot to turn the lever out of 4x4 and when i made a turn on pavement it felt very funny, like the gif.
