1988 22 RE pickup ...4wheel ....HIGH range .......hubs in lock. pulled in and parked THIS WAS after going about 45 mph for 10 Min... Came out and put it in reverse and back out turning the wheels to back out....After 5 feet front wheels seemed to bind stopping the truck in reverse..I got out and freed the hubs...left it in 4X4 4High and went froward with no problem..Did not think to try reverse first...ANY ideas?... I wanted to ask before trying to repeat the problem Charlie

 

What do you know about the truck? Is it recently new to you? Sounds like the diff could be Lincoln Locked up front. Will it bind in 2WD with the front hubs locked?

Also, I try to avoid driving on paved surfaces in lock 4WD

 

What you encountered is normal torque bind from what you said.

Pray tell why were you in 4Hi even on a dry dirt road that can cause problems.??

Black top much worse.

 

I forgot to free hubs and did not notice the 4W4 till I pulled in...I had been pulling trailer ...hubs locked low range... prior

 

Just be careful in the future sometimes it can be so bad things break.

Are things back to normal now??

How long have you had this truck??

 

I know little of what this truck has..I got it to pull a camper up some rough roads to a summer spot in the mountains,,,...No problem with it and I am in low range 4X4 for about 1/4 mile the whole trip.....What do I need to know about it? Study What?...I just have the info printed on the dash about getting into and out of 4X4...Charlie

 

we sometimes forget that some people don`t live and breath Toyota Trucks.

That it was just the luck of the draw you ended up with a Toyota

 

Is there a site with info for us less than full time 4X4 people...You know we like gun.... also...Knives...Old hot rods..Whatever

 

Maybe you should just read Marie Clair magazine or something...
