Default Im a girl, i need help!
First time having a 4 wheel drive vehicle. Thought it was a simple motion of pulling back lever. Not so much, I fir fired that out this morning when I needed it. (Lots of snow).

So how Do I put my vehicle in 4 high?
2012, unlimited sport

Yes u should put it in 4 hi so u can still drive a faster than 20+ mph. 4 hi will allow u to drive up to 55mph but probably should if there's a lot of snow

If it is really hard put the tranny in N at a slow roll push the 4WD lever to the right and pull back. Should pop right in.

When I was a dealership they were able to put it in 4hi at a stopped position? How do I do that? What gear do I need to be in?

You should be able to put it in 4WD at a stop but if it is really hard try it with the transmission in Netrual.

You can also be moving at about 5mph and pull back to 4hi or disengage.

I have manual tran if it is hard I put in neutral

For 4W high just pull the lever back, it shouldnt take much effort if its working right.
