Stupid question time
When 4 hi or low, can you go in reverse for a period of time
Not sure why I'm asking but the question popped into my head.

The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

I remember reading about binding gears or something and can't remember what that was about and this thought came to my head.
