I've only used my 4WD on my K acouple times now, both times I just needed to kick it into 4x4 to get out of the yard(AKA 4Hi)...........Anyhow, it shifts into 4Hi ok, you run it to where you need to go, then try to shift back out to 2 Hi, and it is next to impossible. Had to unlock the hubs to get it today, as it was like the front end put everything into a bind. Is this normal for these to do this? I never had anything 4x4 that was this old, only 4x2's and I sorta miss being able to kick it in and out with ease.
