On the Ram 2500 can you run in 4 wheel drive all the time or can it cause damage? On the 1500 there are more options for the drive train including 4WD auto that the 2500 does not have.

Unless U have a reason for the 4 WD, put back in 2WD. No need to add the wear and tear. BUT Your Truck, do as yer Heart wants.

IMHO only.

you can run in 4H if there is limited traction but I would not run on dry paved roads in 4H. You can shift from 2 wheel drive to 4 h and back to 2 wheel at any time tho with in reason.

I would not. You can shift between 2w and 4w up to and under 55 mph.
