I can see that it would not be good to get these the wrong way round :lol:


--- Quote from: "muddyweb" ---Diff lock (i.e. shoving the lever over to the left) can be engaged at a fair speed.   The main things to be careful of are that you are pointing straight ahead and that you don't have any wheels spinning at the time.  If either of the above aren't the case, then you need to stop and put the lock.

Do you need to use the clutch, just take your foot off the gas, or just ram it across  :)

LOFTY:
Another good note, if diff lock is engaged, and you get a puncture, dont start undoing the wheel nuts, while your mate jacks it up, i have seen a freind smacked in the face, when the wheel was lifted, and the wheel rotated from the tension in the drive line. :oops:

 :lol:    um... yes, you can just ease it across :-)

Bob696:
just to spread the targets out a bit  :lol:  here is my question

when do you use low and when do you use high? :oops:

muddyweb:
ahh, now.. that is very much more a 'piece of string' question.

Gear selection is dependant on the terrain, traction, engine power, and a few more random factors.

It also depends entirely on the type of driver you are, and how quickly you like to tackle any given obstacle.


Basically... I have no intention of giving you a definitive answer to that ;-)
