4HI question

[Shad0w]

Hey Guys,

How fast can one drive safely in 4hi in a raptor?

 

[The Car Stereo Company]

you can shift into 4 hi at any speed.

fast as you want. as long as you're not on pavement, or any hard surface.

and when switching to 4hi, just make sure the rear tires aren;t slipping.
my rule, let off the throttle before switching, then get back on it a second after it switches.

X 2, I agree with that statement

As fast as conditions & your skills allow. Remember, your in 4WD for a reason & its not because your on smooth dry pavement.

So its not safe to drive on dry pavement in 4 Hi?
Just curious... I know there is really no reason to, just learning is all

Nope. Never run 4x4 on hard surfaces. Only on loose surfaces, such as sand, gravel, snow, etc. or, if needed on hard pack surfaces keep it straight.

For example, pulling a boat outta the water on a slippery boat launch 4x4 will be a nice thing to have. Just don't turn the wheel.

Curious for the reason, what happens when you turn the wheel?

I think I know why... drivetrain binding correct?
