The 2WD FF axle is only a light beam. My FAW compared to another Cherokee of the same year (and same trim, options, etc), was 410-lb lighter under same weighing conditions. The RAW was about the same. This is consistent with most Cherokees going back to ca. 1990 (when equipped in the same manner, etc).

I certainly doubt the Wrangler is as heavy: less glass, less body structure, shorter wheelbase, etc.
