What happens if I "ride" my Jeep's brakes?

What can I tow in a Jeep?

Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Scrambler towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system.

How often does my Scrambler transmission fluid need to be checked?

Regularly checking and exchanging your 1984 Scrambler’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform.

Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
