always smooth... never crunching or banging

Island if you are asking if you MUST or NEED to manually shift the auto once in 4wd the answer is NO, you can if you want, I usually shut off the overdrive though and if going up a steep hill I may put it in 1 or 2 and going down a steep hill I'll put it in 1
