Re: Locked in 4W offroad
I'd bet Bill's left ******** that you have a low tire. The shop had it up in
the air and it slipped back into 2WD. I'd bet Bill's right ******** that
they made up the hub story because they don't know what they did to fix it.
Next time you're there ask them to show you where/how they greased the hubs.
