My First Time 4x4'ing!

[Sallad420]

It wasn't anything serious, I just drove up a old logging road in my area outside of the city.

I'm 30 and I have never owned a 4x4 before. Holy crap is it ever fun! I thought it was cool when I had it in 4LOW and had all four tires spitting up mud, I felt like a kid again, it was great.

As soon as I fix my clunking sounds I want to do some more 4x4. It's such a different experiance than driving on the road.

No point to this post, I just wanted to share my excitment!

One question, when I turned my wheels in 4LOW the front made a horrible sound, but I heard that's normal, is this true?

Thanks

Is the clunking occuring when you crank the wheel, or just a little?

And when you start 4-wheeling, you'll never want to stop.

Reminder::::: 4LO is only intended for when all 4 wheels can spin freely and without any restrictions.

i heard that the niose you heard is common, its because the wjeels are spinning at different speeds. the same thing happened to me. i don't rev it way up in 4low anymore, though.

Also..... 4wd LO is not meant for speed. You should always stay below 10 mph with it.
