Second the suggestion for taking an off-road course if you can. I took a course in Virginia that went through the off-roading basics including gear selection and how to pick a line. Definitely worth it.

Or is that trail and error?No problem! I only learned by trial and error as well.
Not great to tell a new guy, maybe let them know a certain speed. I think it says not to shift into 4H above like 30-40mph. Some people like to do this on the highway in bad weather for extra piece of mind. Doing this above 30-40 can damage parts even though some people would want to do it.and you can shift into 4h at any sane speed btw.
One way to absolutely eliminate that is to put the truck into a higher gear. If you have a MT, start in 2nd gear when you don't need the ultra low gearing.I need to get used to 4L a little more. It always feels ultra jerky and less controllable, which is counterintuitive.
Thanks for the tips man - always looking to learn more.
TC kill with the Tazer.After all the input (much appreciate BTW, waaaaay better than the trollies on FB and such…), I think it’s about time for Jeep to make a “Let’s Fu*%in’ Party” button for on-demand activation of the full assortment of goodies we have
Next time you go there "check in" to the app in the valley where you have cell signal, once you get up there the signal is bad, at least for me with T-Mobile.Worst part of this is that I waited until I got home to proudly request my first BOH - only to find out that you have to check-in while you’re there to get it…lot of stuff to learn, but loving my newfound Jeep life!
This!!! Never put your vehicle in park to engage 4 lo. Pop it into neutral, shift to 4lo, It works every time!... anything other than dirt roads, snow, etc you should use 4 LO ... and you need to be in N when going from 4HI to LO. Slightly rolling helps but not necessary.
Agreed!Just saying that I like this thread, thanks to the honesty of the OP and the good genuine advice that has been posted. We all learn from this
