[QUOTE="Brute 23, post: 1154603, member: 6291"] There are different types of 4wd. A truck with locking solid axles will break some thing on asphalt. The more modern 4wds have open differentials which turns one rear tire and the opposite front tire. It's much more forgiving. There are options to lock the rear and the front stays open. Some also have limited slip differentials that locks under light resistance but have a clutch like system to release instead of binding and breaking some thing. Some 4wds have an option where it will engage itself when it senses a tire slipping. I do not know of a modern vehicle that will lock up all the wheels. Read your vehicles specific owners manual to find out what you have. That will tell you how forgiving the 4wd system is. [/QUOTE]
