I've never had a truck with lockouts as my first 1/2 of life it simply was not necessary - and in fact you could haul more weight more safely with 2wd. Up here, 4x4 is a must! The Dodge (2001 1/2-ton) doesn't have lockouts, but 4-lo works quite well. I don't have chains on it so there are times when I need to shift to 4-lo for a short time. As for 4-hi, the truck won't hardly go at all in 2wd but works great in 4-hi. Had to get an off-brand of tires some time back and the rubber is rather hard - so lots of spinning tires in 2wd.

As for the 2004 Chevy 1/2-ton that has push button, the 4-hi on it made a bit of noise when we first got the truck. Also, it was VERY often that the truck wouldn't even shift into 4-hi from 2wd, or into 4-lo from 4-hi. Now that I use it more often it seems to work more like it should. Still, can't remember the last time I even "tried" to shift the thing when sitting still. This truck has to be moving in order to shift. Which means if you're already stuck, ....then you're stuck! But at least it has awesome tires on it!! I use General Grabber AT2 tires, and I swear I will NEVER go back to Goodyear Wranglers....or any other tire!! These General Grabbers work awesome year-yound and are actually quieter than Goodyear HP's, which are supposed to be on-road tires. Lots less expensive also!

Today's Featured Article - The Nuts and Bolts of Fasteners - Part 2 - by Curtis Von Fange. In our previous article we discussed capscrews, bolts, and nuts along with their relative hardness and thread sizes. In this segment we will finish up on our fasteners and then work with ways to keep them from loosening up in the field. Capscrews, bolts and nuts are not the only means of holding two parts together. When dealing with thinner metals like sheet tin, a long bolt and ... [Read Article]
