See my profile.....3 EZ ways to remember this:

WAY (1)

"IN" and "HIGH" is both sticks to the rear

"IN-OUT" stick is closest to you

"H/N/L" stick is furtherest

WAY (2)

"H/N/L" is blocked from shifting into low, unless other stick is in the "IN" posisition (in other words, the stick furtherest has 2 positiions [H/N] OUT of 4X4, and 3 positions [H/N/L] when IN 4X4)

WAY (3)

Look at "DATA PLATE" on dash!

Let me know if this helps

Love, Turddog
