Yep i already had to use 4wd at the track the first time i went, couldn't hook at all in 2wd. I think the track prep sucked

I have push button in my truck and it will NOT shift out under power for me. If you are gonna run less air in the rear tires it will have alot of drivetrain pressure (rear tires are essentially shorter than the front) I cant believe it will shift. If you were to let off it will shift, which would work on a standard tranny when you shift gears.

Some do and some don't with no correlation to engine output. Mine without a doubt shifts out....if I hit that button just a little to quickly I lose the rear. I let pressure out from all 4.

Put new idler and pitman arms on it then do the Cognito supports and Cognito heim tie rods, or at least get the sleeves.
