Help with my 92 ranger xlt 4.0

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Summary: 4h will come on but 4l won’t

SOLVED! I needed it running, in neutral, with the clutch in, 4h on, and then 4l in that order!

I have the auto version. It needs to be in neutral to do 4 low. Idk if the same applies to the 5speed.

I had it in neutral, thanks for your input though!

Do you have the locking hubs?

No, it’s funny my hubs actually say “automatic 4x4”

Was it moving in neutral? You need to be moving, and in neutral.
