hi guys, after driving in LL on a steep four wheel drive track, I have disengaged 4 wheel drive, and driven on tar for while, then turned back onto a 4wheel drive track, but now can't engage HL or LL. The 4x4 gear shift won't move at all. Why would this be? I have not done everything that I have not done before, and never had a problem, but now, the 4x4 gear shift won't move/engage. HELP!

sounds like something wrong with the cogs as if something has locked up, maybe someone on here can shed more light. I would try it with the car off using a bit of force (nothing crazy) and try and knock it out of gear possibly?Originally posted by Count View Post2012 4dr JK wrangler, 3.5" AEV lift, AEV mags, 35" muddies, front/rear arb bars, tjm sliders, pioneer platform and some other goodies -
yeah, I checked underneath to see if maybe a stick or something had jammed it, but all clear. Ihave tried to use force, but still no go. Something has definately gone amiss, but don't know what. Have tried rocking the car back and forth while in gear to free it up, but no go.Comment

That's assuming you put it into neutral before you tried to engage 4WD. (I'm sure you did)Greg - 08 D4D Prado,

What model 120 do you have ? Is it manual, auto ?
Technically, a Prado is ALWAYS in 4WD, in that all wheels are being driven. All that lever does is LOCK the centre diff and put it in LOCKED centre diff mode and either high or low gear range.
If putting it in neutral, you cannot move that stick there is some problem it needs to be looked at.Cheers, WayneComment
