Do you mean that you can't pull the lever back? Or that it goes back, but does not engage?

Mine when it gets real cold out can be hard to pull. Sometimes when crossing creeks it'll get froze also. Can push it forward? Have you tried in park as well as while driving?

Re:Won't shift into 4H

mine gets hard to pull back in too, I think the linkage gets full of snow, cause when I bring her inside overnight at work to thaw out then it shifts fine again for a while <br><br>never any problems once it warms up .........

Re:Won't shift into 4H

Just to let anyone know in the future with the same problem, one of the bolts under the shift boot came out and lodged itself under the lever. I still miss the ease of shiftin on the old NP205 and the BW1345
