J/K with ya man. 4H for regular driving. If you'r in an off road situation where need more torque or control, 4L.

I'll give you a clue. Try 4lo and see what your tach says at 35 mph.

Isn't there an ugly sticker on the visor that explains this to you?

think of it like a bicycle.
4lo is like granny gear on your bike. use it in slow speed, off road situations.

use 4hi at road speeds only when the surface is slippery, don't use it on dry pavement.
