4x4 shift on fly
Whenever I am stopped and in park, if I shift to 4 wheel drive before I start driving I notice nothing different in the steering or anything. Now, a few days ago I was at a light obv. in the "drive" gear but I was stopped and I put it in 4 wheel drive, so when I got the green light I did a U-turn and I noticed it was harder to turn and there was a little tension in the wheels where I had to give it a big more gas to get the truck going, the same thing also happend about a year ago when I tried shifitng to 4 wheel for the first time on the fly, I was probably going about 20mph and when I shifted, something wasn't right, I had to give it more gas to get the truck to move and it seemed like the wheels were trying to hold me up and resisted moving just like I expirienced the other day. But like I said before, when I am in "park" and not moving, if I put it in 4-wheel I have no problems at all...does or has anyone ever expirienced problems when shifting on the fly to 4-wheel like I do. Ever since last year when I shifted on the fly I have not shifted while in motion. If anyone knows what the problem may be, any info is appreciated.
Thank You

You can use your 4WD on the dry ground, but really theirs no need for it on the pavement. We do it all the time with our Jeep and so do countless other off-roads. The drive train binds b/c you have locked the front and rear drive shafts together but your front and rear wheels are traveling different arc paths, the same is true for the passenger and drivers side wheels but your differential takes care of that difference. Drive train binding is a sign of stress and means you may end up breaking something.... but hey you gotta pay to play.
