Discussion in ‘ Questions From New Drivers ‘ started by Damaged_Goods, Nov 26, 2016 . Just wondering how slow can I go when exiting a highway off ramp that has a curve with , say a 15 to 25 mph speed limit. Well, a long off ramp before the reduced speed…That’s Easy…. but the short ones, the ones with less than 300 or even 200 feet. OR…
How fast can you Drive in 4WD Lo?
If you survey the driving surface and you feel you can drive faster than 10mph without causing damage to your vehicle and without making the driving experience too uncomfortable than it would be safe to disengage 4×4 low and drive in 4×4 high instead.
How does 4×4 low gearing affect wheel turning?
When you drive in 4×4 low, all four wheels are being powered by the engine simultaneously and the low ration gearing through the transfer case is being used. Wheel turning speed will be drastically reduced when 4×4 low is engaged but more engine power and torque is more readily available.
What’s the best speed to drive in 4×4 low?
Driving speed in 4×4 low should never exceed 10mph since the surface conditions are usually low traction rocky, steep and uneven surfaces that require low-speed control. 10mph is the maximum recommended speed to drive in 4×4 low on technical off-road tracks.
What happens if you drive fast in 4WD Low?
Driving fast while rock crawling in 4×4 low will only cause damage to your drivetrain, body panels, and undercarriage components.

Why does my steering wheel vibrate when I go over 50 mph?
Be sure to have the rotor checked and skimmed or replaced completely if needed. A worn out or rusted brake caliper pin may be another culprit for vibrations. You will probably feel your steering wheel start to vibrate around 50 miles per hour, which will intensify as you increase your speed, and you’ll sense a burning smell when you stop.

What’s the best speed to exit a highway?
If it’s 25 mph and you have a very low center gravity, slow it to 18 and be steady around. If you had a high center load like swinging beef hanging from your trailer roof, you slow that to 12. If you had a massive steel coil on a flatbed you slow it to 5.
Is it OK to roll a truck on an exit ramp?

How tall is the post before the exit ramp?
If you look at the small reflective markers on 4 foot posts approx 750 feet, 500 feet and 300 feet prior to a exit ramp you notice they gain a reflective circle to three circles on a post outside of the highway gaurd rail at the 300 foot mark.
What’s the best ramp speed for a Jake?
You should already be out of cruise, into your jake and working down your down shift tree while braking smoothly to set up the whole thing for ramp speed. If it’s 25 mph and you have a very low center gravity, slow it to 18 and be steady around.
What’s the speed to exit a highway for an off ramp?
Whatever happens at that point is a literal battle with physics, speed, momentum and weight versus whatever the escape ramp is made of.
