Shifting into 4 hi
 
A few times now I've had a hard time getting my tj to shift from 2 to 4 hi
when on a hill. Is it because I'm on a hill that is the problem or could
there be something else ?

Re: Shifting into 4 hi
 
When you say "on a hill", do you mean 'driving around 40 mph up a hill in
town', or 'driving 5 mph up a steep hill on a trail'? I don't know if it
matters much, but I could see where one *might* cause more problems than the
other.

Re: Shifting into 4 hi
 
You should be able to shift into 4HI are virtually any speed*. It doesn't
matter if you are on a hill or on flat ground.

(*) If you are going so fast that the speed is a consideration, then you
don't need 4WD. Of course, 4WD should only be used on dirt or gravel, where
the front tires can release stress by slipping on the ground.
