    My manual says 62mph is the maximum speed to shift into 4wd. But I personally wouldn't drive over 50mph while in 4wd. But, that is me. I don't use it on the highways anyway. I stick with 2wd 99% of the time. I use 4wd in low speeds only, to get going.Them switch back to 2wd.

    Max speed to shift into it, not to drive in it.
