I've heard a lot of 4by owners whinge about how hard it is to take off in High range, with their vehicle, To me most seem ok under normal conditions, but it takes next to no load to make them struggle on take off if on a hill or in a bit of soft ground.

My thing is why make them struggle?,..building up revs and slipping the clutch will get them moving but for how long?...LOL.....Low range is there for a reason use it!.

If you know how, changing from low to high is not hard after some practice, ..Eg with landrover when a bit of speed is built up(NO nasty comments here) throw main box into neutral double shuffle low to high, then grab appropriate gear...BUT!! you must be quick, or bits of gear box will be scattered up the road behind you..lol.
