Engaging 4 wheel drive...hi

Asked by AmosnArthur Jan 22, 2016 at 02:08 AM about the 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I jus bought a 2005 Grand Cherokee  (Limited, 4.7L
V8) and I'm unsure how to engage 4 wheel drive.
Mainly high. The T-bar on center console,...put in
Neutral, lift up T-bar, it engages Low....how do I
switch to hi...for driving in snow on roads or when
driving on the beach in sand? I don't want to do
something wrong and tear it up.

Check the owners manual. In fact read through the entire owners manual. There's a lot of tips that even the most experienced driver does not know about

My 2004. Never in 'N' position. It's always in either 'H' or 'L'. Mostly 'H' always!
