Gm Tracker 2001
#3
x2 tire size.
what surface were you driving on,? pavement and if yes , was it dry, water wet, snow or ice covered.
or was it off road.?
this car has Part-time 4wd and is not AWD,

if you drive on just pavement that is not full of ice or snow , this is wrong. this car has no Center Differential or slip clutch device, none ! My 2002 jeep wrangler has such a magic clutch.!

see this link (see that damage, that is called wind up damage, the forces are huge.

thin click on the Stop driving on pavement link.


in the glove box is the operators guide, on mine, page 2-22 it stays

"do not drive on in four-wheel drive on pavement for extended periods of time"
a gross understatement if ever, and fails to stated what pavement means or , time" 2004

1995 Suzuki "Do not use 4-wheel drive for normal driving on dry ,hard surfaced roads" (note how they skipped warm wet roads)

1994 "GEO" page 46 "Driving in "4H"or "4L" positions for a long time on dry or wet pavement could shorten the life of your vehicle's drivetrain " note the added word,"wet" !

here is one operator guide.
search works, in adobe, search and read the "do not" and "damage" and "4L" (for sure the ones , while in a moving car)

you can drive in 4H or 4L, off road and or on ice or snow packed "anything" until the cows come home. Part time eats this for breakfast.

note the warnings of shifting into 4wd on the fly, and speed limits to same, and hub usage, (2 types)
