Re: Out of 4wd Hard
I just did this for the first time since I bought the Jeep. My guess is
that it's been 2 years+ since it's been done. I locked the hubs and drove
about a mile then engaged 4WD High for a while then 4WD Low. The *clunk*
when engaging 4WD Low the first time was impressive. I switched between Low
and High a few times and the *clunk* was gone. I think I need to do this
more than every 2 years from now on :-)
