Can I Drive My Truck?
Hey guys just an update. I decided to have the truck taken on a rollback to the dealership. After getting the truck there, they said the IWE actuator was bad. They installed a new actuator at no charge. Thanks for all the info guys you were spot on.
I'm not sure if dry pavement is different, but many people, including me, use 4wd on paved roads when they are iced over or have snow on them. Some people use it at highway speeds and have no problems. I personally don't go over 45 mph if it is in 4wd and I have never had any problems. I think the book even says not to go over 45mph in 4wd hi and not over 15mph in 4wd low.
The point is - do not use 4wd unless wherever you are is slippery. If the roads are that slippery, even 45 mph may be a bit much simply from a safety standpoint, not a mechanical standpoint. 4wd only helps you to go, it doesn't help one bit with steering or stopping.
