Shifting From 4X4 High To 2Wd; Shifting From 4X4 High To 4X4 Low; Shifting From 4X4 Low To 4X4 High Or 2Wd - Ford F-350 Owner's Manual

Driving
• Do not shift into 4x4 HIGH with the rear wheels slipping.

Shifting from 4x4 HIGH to 2WD

Rotate the 4x4 control to 2WD at
any forward speed. Disengagement
of the transfer case and front hubs
may be delayed due to torque bind
which is caused by driving on dry
hard surfaces or performing tight
turns while using the 4x4 system.
• You do not need to operate the vehicle in R (Reverse) to disengage
your front hubs, but it will eliminate any torque bind and allow the
system to immediately disengage.

Shifting from 4x4 HIGH to 4x4 LOW

1. Bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
2. Place the gearshift in N (Neutral). If the vehicle is equipped with a
manual transmission, also depress the clutch pedal.
3. Move the 4x4 control to the 4x4
LOW position.
4. Hold the shift conditions until the
4x4 LOW indicator light illuminates.
5. If the 4x4 LOW indicator light
does not illuminate within 15
seconds, allow the vehicle to move
at a speed below 5 mph (8 km/h),
then repeat steps 2 through 5 while
the vehicle is rolling before
reporting any shift concerns to your authorized dealer.
