    Use 4x4 for 10 miles/month, and keep the contact points and wiring clean.

    You can engage 4 high while moving at normal speed right? But not freeway speed. And just drive around the streets in 4 hi 10 miles a month? And is it fine making hard turns in 4 hi?

    Corey, don't listen to those guys. They'll lead you astray. Here's the definitive TW guide to using 4wd:

    You can only drive in 4wd on pavement if you were born gay, and it is raining outside.

    If there's a straight stretch, and its sunny, you can engage 4LO, but only while driving 70mph or above, and you must be straight (by choice).

    If you were born straight, then changed sexual preference to be gay, but then changed back to being straight due to some religious fanaticism, you can then use 4wd on dry pavement, but only while reversing into a handicapped parking spot.

    If you choose to be born gay, then you can use 4wd anytime/anywhere, but you have to be reading the Bible.

    If you were chosen to be born straight, then you can drive in 4wd on dirt roads or cobblestone, but only on Sunday. shomer Shabbat

    Just wanted to make sure I got it right before I choose to drive my truck in 4wd. [​IMG]

    LOL don't mind them, Corey. They need their daily dose of gay talk and this had them set for a week.

    4hi is OK to engage on pavement when going straight. You can engage and disengage any speed under 61mph. You need to engage 4lo in neutral, so needless to say, you need to be stopped to do so.

    I don't recommend doing any of this on dry pavement, because no matter how flat or straight you THINK you're going, there's always a slight variance in the asphalt that can cause the drivetrain to bind. Last thing you want is to blow your transfer case or a diff.
