Re: 2 Hi to 4 Hi and back is hard to shift? Why?
Next time try shifting it back into 2x on the fly. While sitting still the front end can put enought strain on it to not allow it to shift easy...

Re: 2 Hi to 4 Hi and back is hard to shift? Why?
If it is not used very often it can be tough. Make sure there is no strain on the drivetrain when you shift back. Get up to about 20 and level off on the gas pedal like coasting then try it. You may need to grease the shafts on the transfer case. Also, if you have a 205 transfer case there is a grease zert on the pivot shaft of the shifter. A 205 has 2 shafts and a pivot bar connecting them together coming out of the upper front of the transfer case.

Before shifting out of 4hi or low try putting it in idling in reverse for about 10 or so feet. That should unload any binding in the drivetrain.

Re: 2 Hi to 4 Hi and back is hard to shift? Why?
Most of the time, mine shifts out just fine, but everyonce in a while it doesn't want to. i have found that means i've got the X-fer case bound up. Back up and try again. or drive it forward a while longer until something slips and gives... it'll usually move real easy after that...

Re: 2 Hi to 4 Hi and back is hard to shift? Why?
mine can be stiff at time too and I use the forward backward trick while trying to shift and it pops out eventually...
