4wd procedure

[flyingbrick]

Not sure if ive asked this.. it is possibly the most stupid question ever tho.

How do you all get your safari into 4wd. Mines an Auto and with the motor running and the trans in neutral i have a 50-50% success rate. It'll go into 4H fine but then will stop when going into 4L (asif the gears are not meshing) and then any attempt to move the lever forwards or backwards after this will result in gears grinding.

Sometimes its fine.. sometimes its not. Its asif my neutral is kinda not being neutral enough.

Any ideas? sometimes its no issue- sometimes i have to turn the engine off- slot it into 4wd and then restart

Try engauging it in drive

[flyingbrick]

lol. I know so little about the way this shit works i'm not sure if you are joking or serious.

[turoa]

alot of safaris do that. I wouldnt worry about it. As you said, just turn it off and slot in

[DaveM]

Mines the same, if I put it in park, no grinding though

Nup was serious, if in drive there shouldnt be anything turning in the gearbox to make it graunch

Taking out is the reverse of putting in??, do you need to reverse a bit to unlock the hubs? ( I had to with my Zuk)

[flyingbrick]

taking out is no problem

thanks all- will try park

[Taz]

Yeah mine does that sometimes in neutral to but I find if I keep my foot on the brake shes sweet as.

Don't shift like a nana and you'll be fine. I can shift from low to high on the go as long as you do it fast and hard it doesn't make to much noise!!!!
Seriously though, just put it in neutral and then push it though firmly. If you pussy around, that is when it will get caught in between and that is when it gets really hard to get into gear. If that happens then turn it off or get really rough!
I've only replaced the transfer case once in my truck, which is less than every other part of the truck so they are pretty tough.

So just harden up and treat it like a truck not a rice racer!

[flyingbrick]

granny shifting- not double clutching like i should

I'll try being more forceful

do it fast and hard then push it though pussy , that is when it will get caught in between and that is when it gets really hard to get in. If that happens then get really rough!

So just harden up

do it fast and hard then push it through the pussy , that is when it will get caught in between and that is when it gets really hard to get in. If that happens then get really rough! she will love you for it !

So just harden up

[flyingbrick]

While im here... spent an hour over lunch cutting/welding my lever so that it wouldn't hit the rear of the hole...
Atleast it gets into 4wd now (eventually:)) ive been turning down trips ever since i fitted my 35mm body lift.

just coz you got a toyota and a toyota motor, doesnt mean your easy

put it all together in a 40 and your my cup o tea


this is going too far, I have standards

[vvega]

lol remeber you can only delete words or letters
tizz the rules of misquoting

[flyingbrick]

Thought i'd update this.

Yeah oit was me being too limp wristed

A good firm yank untill it goes in is all it needs. Did not have the problem once today even threw it back a few times while moving hahahaha.

Broke my mud virginity today was very surprised by how capable the safari is even with stock suspension and 31" muds. Had atleast one very close call that i can think of- swamped out the foot wells and got a few dents here and there.. but overall

Yeah it was me being too limp wristed, should be driving a Toyota

A good firm yank is all it needs, did not have the problem after practicing once a day but it threw stuff back in my face few times while moving hahahaha.

Broke my mud virginity today was very surprised by how much extra traction ribbed condoms give while in the brown stuff:mrgreen:
