speaking of 4wd and dry pavement. I need to use 4WD-HI to get my trailer in and out of my back yard. I have been engaging 4wd in the street (dry pavement) then backing into my yard. I do this, because sometimes 4WD HI engages instantly, other times it takes a bit. And I don't want to get stuck. Yes, I've already gotten stuck in 2wd in my own yard :-( So my question is, is that sometimes I maybe backup 20ft in 4wd hi while turning a bit. I can hear/feel the tires scrubbing a bit. How much wear is this causing? I'm going to try to get it straight before engaging 4wd from now on (have done this about 10 times so far). sorry for the book :-)
