induce a torque interrupt and allow full engagement of
the newly selected position. With the vehicle stationary, it
may be necessary to shift from D (Drive) to R (Reverse)
and back to D (Drive) after shifting. This will allow full
engagement of the newly selected position. Apply a
constant force when shifting the transfer case lever.
4 PART TIME to 4 FULL TIME or 4 FULL TIME to
4 PART TIME
Shifting between 4 PART TIME and 4 FULL TIME can be
made with the vehicle stopped or in motion. If the vehicle
is in motion, shifts can be made up to 55 mph (88 km/h).
With the vehicle in motion, two momentary releases of the
accelerator pedal may be required after shifting. This will
induce a torque interrupt and allow full engagement of
the newly selected position. With the vehicle stationary, it
may be necessary to shift from D (Drive) to R (Reverse)
and back to D (Drive) after shifting. This will allow full
engagement of the newly selected position. Apply a
constant force when shifting the transfer case lever.
4 FULL TIME to 4 LO or 4 LO to 4 FULL TIME
With the vehicle rolling at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h), shift
the transmission into N (Neutral). While the vehicle is
coasting at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h), shift the transfer
case lever firmly to the desired position. Do not pause in
transfer case N (Neutral).
NOTE: Pausing in transfer case N (Neutral) in vehicles
equipped with an automatic transmission may require
shutting the engine OFF to avoid gear clash while
completing the shift. If difficulty occurs, shift the trans-
mission to N (Neutral), hold foot on brake, and turn the
engine OFF. Make shift to desired mode.
NOTE: Shifting into or out of 4LO is possible with the
vehicle completely stopped, however difficulty may oc-
cur due to the mating clutch teeth not being properly
aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch
teeth alignment and shift completion to occur. The pre-
ferred method is with the vehicle rolling 2 to 3 mph (3 to
