4wd usage and Manual instruction

Just throw this out there. Do most of us use the 4wd enough to keep parts lubed up. Owner's manual states to operate on semi regular basis. I will during winter, but the suburbs dont offer anything other than cutting across a golf course during rush hour. What say you?

 

I try to go out 4x4’n at least once per month. Sometimes I don’t make it that often.

Living in Las Vegas the roads get super slippery right when it first rains (it only rains a few times per year), when this happens I usually will throw it into 4 HI and slide around a little bit just to lube things around. I don’t know if this is bad or not but that’s what I do.

 

Yes, I never drive on dry pavement in 4 wheel so I don’t mess anything up.

 

Good to know. Thank you.

Can you also drive in 4LO on pavement as long as you don’t turn your wheels??

 

I get to do it every month almost everyday 4hi/low, benefits of desert life, or military for that matter I abuse the roads meant for military vehicles

 

I work at a concrete plant, we have a large stock pile of sand where i can engage 4WD and keep things lubed up.

 

Yep a few times a week rolling along in the daily traffic jam for a few miles.
