Shift on the fly?

The transfer on your Stryker takes some getting used to, drivers. If you don't get used to it fast, though, you will be quickly buying a new one.

The transfer has three settings: 4-wheel drive, 8-wheel drive high, and 8-wheel drive low. If your Stryker is moving slow, you can shift from 4-wheel drive to 8-wheel drive high (and back again) while on the fly.

However, you should never shift from either 4-wheel drive or 8-wheel drive high to 8-wheel drive low while the vehicle is moving. That rips up the transfer case.

When shifting into 8-wheel drive low, stop the vehicle, put it in neutral and then flip the transfer case speed switch to take it to 8-wheel drive low.
