err press down is only into transfer neutral then into low gear.

2 hi to 4 hi is just pull back, doesnt need clutch either as can
be done on move, or shift on the fly as the yanks say!

I'll agree with that, I try mine every 3-4 months on wet grass or loose gravel.

I then leave the auto hubs engaged and select 2 wd and exercise the front diff as well, to circulate the oil, for about 10 miles or so.

Never had an issue in 16 1/2 years.:thumb2
