Overall ratio is about 34:1 meaning the vehicle can retreat through extremely rough terrain rather than "bashed" through. Four wheel drive is automatically engaged in all low gears. There are two sliding components (shown in colour on the Overview) on the shaft between the front and rear output shafts. These parts lock the shafts together and engage the low ratio cog set.

WARNING: Using this gear to obtain maximum pull will result in front differential or halfshaft breakage if there is no tyre slippage. Eg pulling out tree stumps.
