FourWheel Drive (4WD) vehicles can travel safely and securely on nearly any surface. Most often, the system uses either a clutch or a full-time center differential to allow the front and rear wheels to turn at different speeds. Whether the road is covered in snow or is dry as dirt, this system can be utilized confidently.

All-wheel drive is almost the same as full-time 4WD. It can be used full-time on all surfaces, including pavement, like full-time 4WD. The only difference is that a ''4-low'' setting is not available on all AWD vehicles. Due to this lack of ''low range'', AWD vehicles can be less capable in off-road settings than full-time 4WD vehicles but work perfectly well on-road.


Full-Time 4WD operates by default in four-wheel drive and can travel safely and securely on all surfaces. The system uses either a clutch or a center differential to allow the front and rear wheels to turn at varying speeds. Whether the road is covered in snow or is dry as dirt, this system can be utilized confidently.


Part-time 4WD locks the front and rear axles together so the front and rear wheels turn at the same speed. If attempting to turn or drive on dry surfaces, binding (crow hop) and driveline noise (a bang or shudder) will occur, which can lead to early part failure.


Crow hop happens when in a turn the front and rear axles travel in separate paths but are locked together as the vehicle turns. The axles then slip the tires to allow them to travel on different paths.


Both systems can be used when parked or moving. The Quadra-Lift Air Suspension System raises the vehicle to allow more clearance for driving through rocky terrain. If the vehicle is moving, you can manually select the height for the Quadra-Lift system or have the vehicle automatically select the optimal setting through SelecTerrain.




Low range 4x4 means your vehicle is using all four wheels and a low gear ratio to drive. While traveling in low range, your wheels will turn at slower speeds than when in high range. Do not exceed 25 mph (40 km/h). When engaging or disengaging Low-Range Mode, do it only when the vehicle is moving at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) or slower. Avoid using this mode for normal driving on hard surfaces.


Yes. You can shift into 4x4 Low when the vehicle is rolling at 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) by shifting an automatic transmission into Neutral or depressing the clutch pedal on a manual transmission and then shifting into low range.


Yes, but this is not recommended. The teeth of the gears may not be properly aligned so difficulty may occur. The preferred method is to shift into Low-Range when going 2 to 3 mph (3 to 5 km/h) in Neutral. After shifting, return the transmission to the desired gear.




High range is designed for off-road conditions (i.e. gravel, mud, sand). The 4H and 4L positions are intended for loose, slippery road surfaces only and not intended for normal driving. Driving the 4H and 4L positions on hard-surfaced roads will cause increased tire wear and damage the driveline components. You should not go faster than road conditions permit.


Speed and power are not always necessary in rough off-road driving. In low-range 4WD, the low gearing and low speed of Jeep Brand 4x4 vehicles at idle will generally pull you over obstacles. In many cases, with manual transmissions, letting the clutch out slowly and allowing the vehicle to crawl over obstacles in the lowest gear is the best scenario. As a matter of fact, on the Rubicon Trail, the average speed is a mere 1-5 miles per hour with a range of 17 miles per 1-2 days.


Generally, when snow or mud is present on the driving surface, it is the right time to engage your on-demand or part-time 4WD system. If you have an all-time system like Quadra-Trac I, there is no input required from you. When off-road in heavy snow, when pulling a load, or for additional control at slower speeds, shift the transmission to a low gear and shift the transfer case to 4WD-LOW if necessary (Quadra-Trac I and Quadra-Trac SRT do not offer a low range). Don't shift to a lower gear than necessary to maintain momentum. Over-revving the engine can spin the wheels and traction will be lost. If you begin to lose traction in snow or mud, turn your steering wheel back and forth rapidly. This will generally help the wheels bite into fresh terrain and pull you through. If traction is lost, STOP. Wheel spinning will just dig you in deeper. The key is to maintain forward momentum.


At the base of the hill you should apply more power. Ease up on the power as you approach the top and before going over the crest. If you stall on the ascent, back straight down the hill in reverse. NOTE: NEVER drive up a hill at an angle. If the hill is very steep and you don't feel confident that you or your vehicle can make it up, don't attempt it. Never get sideways on a steep slope as this can lead to vehicle instability. Off-roading can be very challenging. Remember, go as slow as possible. Use common sense with safety being the foremost concern.


For downhill travel, always use the lowest gear with a manual transmission. When descending a hill in low-range, do not disengage the clutch and allow the vehicle to coast. Severe damage to your clutch disc may result. Allow the gears and engine compression to slow you down, using the brakes only to fine-tune your speed. If equipped with an automatic transmission, use low-range and the lowest drive setting.


We call it "crawling" for a reason. Use a low gear and low-range 4WD and just let the vehicle crawl and idle (with as little throttle as needed) when going over obstacles like rocks or logs. Never straddle rocks. A vehicle with 10 inches of ground clearance will not go over a 12-inch rock! Maneuver the tire on top of the rocks and crawl over them slowly. If you hear scraping, don't panic. Your Jeep Brand 4x4 vehicle's skid plates and rock rails (this equipment varies depending on what Jeep Brand 4x4 vehicle and packages have been purchased or leased) will take the brunt of the beating. Dropping tire pressure 3-5 PSI improves traction and helps avoid tire punctures. (Return to normal pressure after use in these conditions.) Remember, the ideal speed for rock crawling is 1-3 miles per hour.


Watch for other vehicles and remember that uphill has the right of way. If you stop, get off the trail if possible. Always leave the trail in better shape than you found it. Observe posted signs and stay on trails and recreation areas approved for off-roading. Use your good judgment in protecting the beauty and solitude of the area. Don't leave anything behind and, better yet, pick up and remove any trash that others have discarded. And if the terrain looks especially fragile, take an alternate route.

Yes. Jeep Brand 4xe hybrid SUVs deliver legendary off-road capability. The Wrangler 4xe is our most capable Wrangler ever, delivering instant torque, exhilarating horsepower and hybrid performance to take you to distant destinations. Grand Cherokee 4xe also offers incredible capability, thanks to advanced and uncompromising 4x4 systems. Enjoy the quiet when off-roading in electric mode, charge at Jeep solar chargers at select Badge of Honor trail heads, and remember to check for a full charge before venturing off-road.


Designed to prevent loss of traction by transferring torque from one wheel to another when slippery conditions are detected. Uses the antilock brake system to apply braking to wheels that have lost traction.




Flexible metal helix-shaped coils that can be compressed and stretched and return to their original form when resting. Coil springs support the weight of the vehicle as the wheels travel up and down over bumpy surfaces.


Determines the ability of the vehicle to safely and securely "creep" along at very low speeds in Low-Range and lowest gear when going up very steep hills or on descents. The higher the crawl ratio, the better the off-road capabilities.




Works the same as an axle differential with an added advantage. When the drive wheel begins spinning on slippery surfaces, a limited-slip differential automatically transfers torque to the opposite wheel to help improve traction.




Low-range is a 4x4 mode for extreme situations needing more torque at low speed, such as getting out of a tough driving spot or navigating slippery surfaces, steep climbs, dense mud, soft sand or water.




When the shifter is in this position, the front and rear axles spin freely. Can be used for towing a Jeep Brand vehicle behind another vehicle (such as a motor home), so that uncoupling the driveshafts is not required. Also for use when shifting into Low-Range.




Transmits 50% of the torque to both wheels on the same axle. If you are running an open differential and you hit a loose patch, the differential will send power to the wheel that is encountering the least resistance. This results in wheel spin on the loose patch side, while the solid contact side barely moves.




The RTI is a measure of articulation. It tests how well a vehicle can keep all wheels on the ground while off-roading and traveling over bumpy obstacles. The better the flexibility, the better the traction and stability of the vehicle.




I'm sorry, for security reasons I can't access files posted on external sites, especially public sharing sites. You can simply post your document here. Is the MFM unit streaming data to the computer? Then you wouldn't see timeouts, but should see data in the Monitor. But that also means its not Modbus.


This manual is the perfect example of someone writing a Modbus manual without understanding Modbus. They have the Voltage V1N register at address 30000 / hex address 0. What they really mean is 30001. 30000 doesn't exist in the standard modbus addressing space. You'll need to add one to the addresses listed. Also, they are Floating point I/O type, though I can't tell if you need Reverse Words or not.
