    4WD dos/don'ts/cans/can'ts

Best bet is to just let off of throttle, shift, then you can get back into throttle. 4 i think 40sih, 5 yes, all the shifting...

    5 ton pinion brake

    if you tried to use that for regular braking you would have that rotor glowing red from the first stop. We've got a wrangler around here on 2.5tons and pinion brakes with 42" tires and the braking is too hard to make it enjoyable for the road, plus you can smell the brakes getting super hot...

    power driven trailer

    those leafs on the trailer seem fine enough to hold a drive axle, why would you need to 4link it?

    Still looking for deuce around greensboro n.c.
