I think you need a driver's manual. Go to a DC dealer and they can tell yo
how to get one.

Re: WRANGLER YJ - WHEN TO USE 4WD?
The four wheel drive on this vehicle is not meant for sustained use, not
even on unpaved roads. The time to engage it is "just before you would get
stuck if you didn't". Precisely how to determine when that is, depends on
your local terrain and experience.

I use mine in 4x4 for hours at a time on the highway and for days and
weeks at a time in the city and on 10 day bush runs.....
Mine has lasted since 1986.....

Amen, my '91 is used on Colorado 4X4 Roads (San Juan Mountains near and
around Telluride and Ouray) for hours at a time. 4.0L, five speed, lifted 3
1/2 inches. I don't use 4X4 much on the highway unless it is snow covered
or icy.
