Locking Rear Axle

The locking rear axle can give your vehicle additional
traction from the rear wheels when traveling in off-road
situations such as mud, snow, sand, steep hills and
uneven terrain.

The button used to turn
this feature on or off is
located above the transfer
case buttons to the
right of the steering wheel.

To lock the rear axle, do the following:

1. Place the transfer case in the 4LO Lock mode. This

is the only mode which will allow the rear axle to
lock. See All-Wheel Drive on page 2-32 for
more information regarding the transfer case and
4LO Lock mode.

2. Press the button with the vehicle stopped or moving

less than 2 mph (3 km/h).
