What is the difference between Wrangler 4H and 4L?

[DanielaLee]

Here are the specific differences between Wrangler 4L and 4H: 1. Concept: 4L stands for low-speed four-wheel drive, with a larger gear ratio in the transfer case, which can amplify torque, reduce speed, and increase power, making it suitable for extremely harsh road conditions. 4H stands for high-speed four-wheel drive, with a smaller gear ratio in the transfer case, allowing for relatively higher speeds, but with less guaranteed power, making it suitable for general mild off-road conditions. 2. Application: For conditions like snow, mud, and deserts, 4L is not recommended; instead, 4H should be used. When starting on low-traction surfaces, the torque amplified by 4L can be too large, causing the tires to spin and slip instantly, making it difficult to start.
