Transfer case use question
I know I'm going to regret asking this question because the answer is probably really obvious, but I've been pondering and can't come up with an answer. Why is there a 2H in the shift pattern, (1966 F250)? When would you use 2H?
If I want 2 wheel drive I put the transfer in neutral and unlock the hubs.

But, you are probably slipping it into the undocumented 2L position. Read this thread. In a nutshell there is a long throw between Neutral and 4L and you are finding the other selection. 2L is OK for off-road, but if you are going on the highway then you'd want 2H for that. Neutral - when you are actually in Neutral - doesn't provide power to the front or back wheels. You'd use Neutral to sit in one spot and run something off of a PTO.
