I had a cause to use 4 Lo last weekend, on an uphill dirt path towing a heavy load. Every time I started to move, the rear tires would spin a bit (a full revolution perhaps? Cant' see them from the drivers seat) before the front axle would start to move, leaving a hole the truck needed to crawl out of. I understand that there will be some slack in the drive train, but when I stopped for a moment and started to move again, without rolling anywhere or taking it out of gear - same thing. I would expect that the slack had been taken out of things after that first spin, and that the drivetrain is all under forward compression at that point. In the past, with older trucks, I have always had a manual transfer case, so I find this unusual.
Is this normal behavior for this drivetrain?
How does this truck share power between front and rear axles?
Thanks!
