just a word of advice, i wouldnt do that in 4lo cuz its not made to go over about 30 in 4lo but 4hi is fine. i would be scared of breaking some axles in 4lo because of the gear reduction. just my .02!

To get the most out of a 4wd truck simple launch in 4HI and as soon as you get off the line whitch back to 2wd. It works like a charm and what you gain in 60' will easily make up for an momentary loss of power while in 4wd.
