Learn how to use proper gears, low range, and differential locks to navigate difficult mud and climb steep hills without getting stuck.

How do I use low range and diff lock in Low Range Offroad 4x4?

  1. Use low range gear ratios when tackling steep inclines to maximize torque and control.
  2. Engage your differential lock (diff lock) when tires start slipping to ensure power is sent to all wheels equally.
  3. Watch your speed and momentum when approaching thick mud pits to avoid getting completely bogged down.
  4. Use a winch when you get heavily stuck instead of frantically spinning your tires.
  5. Press key 4 and watch the bottom left indicator to air down your tires specifically for mud, and press K to engage differential lockers when you get stuck.
