Many people say applying a little brake pressure will cause the front diff to transfer more power to the stuck (non-spinning) wheel, because the brake is creating resistance to the free tire spinning. I haven't had a chance to try this on my 4x4, but I've heard from quite a few people that it could give that little extra umph that it takes to get you unstuck.

Lovinhonda,

Slow down and read your own writing. Re-read it when you are done. Use the edit feature. Some of us are having trouble with the shorthand!!
