I'm not terribly new to 4 low / trail driving, but I'm completely new to the ways of the third pedal.
The ability to choose the exact gear I was in while on the trail was a huge factor in deciding to go this route. I've read and understand that "skip shifting" this (or any transmission really) isn't such a good idea. Does operation in 4wd low range alleviate or increase risk of damage while doing this? My main concern isn't necessarily the act of "skip shifting" itself but instead with the ability to start from 3rd or maybe even 4th while in low range. Is doing so ill-advised?
I absolutely love having the 6 speed so far, and want to keep the clutch/synchros healthy and smooth. Any advice on how I can use the transmission to its full potential offload while not introducing unnecessary wear and tear would be greatly appreciated!
