    Sorry Bro, thought you were, my mind must be slippin'...

    I think in general, the larger diameter, more aggressive lug pattern, the weirder the TOD is gonna get...mine "pulses power to the front tires" ever since I went to 33's, more so with the Mud Graps than the Terras. But mostly under more aggressive acceleration than you're describing.

    Make sure the psi is same/same on all four corners.

    I run MTR's on my off road wheels and have not had this problem. I do not get any tire slip with them. I think this is not a tire issue. The MTR's grip as well as any other AT tire out there.

    well thats good news and bad news...one guy says ya and another says no....

    its really more right before it shifts when the power comes in a little stronger...

    however, i have also noticed it slipping a little when braking hard too...so im thinking that the wrangler mtr's are either stiff tires or lack of rubber contact on the road...

    thanks for the help guys

    Mine did this with the 33" MTR's pretty regularly. I just tried to get better at smooth starts until finally putting in the TOD disable switch/resistor mod. That also got rid of the drivetrain vibration caused by the 4" lift.

    You can also try lowering your pressure to get a little better grip, but that will affect milage some and wear the tires faster.
