Hey guys i just was wondering if you guys could run me through proper use of a part time 4x4 system. i know if you use it incorrectly i can do a lot of harm to my front end.. something about the wheels trying to turn at the same speed

 

Never, Never use it on dry pavement, and I think (if memory serves me right) only up to 45mph

 

in the factory manual it says it can be used in any legal driving speed
i guess what im really trying to get at it when is it ok to use it on pavement

 

On dry pavement is the biggest no-no that people do. And I really never follow the manual, cause there not always the smartest way. I just never try to use it over 45mph if you can avoid it..

 

how do i know if its slippery enough to use it iv had this through 1 winter and haven't used 4x4 once even when i needed it i just don't want to hurt her

 

As long as the road is at least wet your fine, you just don't want to be on dry pavement..

 

you will hear and feel it scruff and slip and normally that sends up a red flag that you shouldnt be using it
