And here I thought I was doing fine.. :doh:
Is the following a true statement?
Important: "4-low" does not create more traction - it creates more torque and that can be detrimental when traction is marginal. Slipping tires are more likely in "4 low" than in "4 high"!
For that reason 4 low is not a good choice for snow or ice - and not a good choice for mud either!
(Yes, I was in 4LO & 1/2 on Cleghorn Saturday) :dunce:
Also, in my '99 stocker - auto w/ NP231, there is a huge difference in available speed between 4LO & 1/2 vs 4LO & 3. Is this right, or is there something wrong? (Or should I not even be in 3 while in 4LO?)
When I go 4HI & 1/2 to try and use that to control descent on a normal, dry, dirt hill, it just doesn't seem that it limits my rate of speed enough.
Is this right or should I have tranny / tc looked at?
Thanks!
