Question 4wd Turning

I've tried to look but it keeps telling me it cant find anything.

What I'd like to know is how hard or sharp can i turn while in 4wd?

I never really got to use it in 4wd much because of work but its gonna be raining this weekend, im getting my new MTs in in a day or two, so I'll be out and trying it "hardcore" for the first time. But I'm not sure whats a safe point or breaking point in turning with in in either 4 lo or 4 hi. Or does it even matter? I'm asking on behalf of both dry ground and in mud/offroad terrain if that matters.

The only thing that might limit you is if the new tires rub at full lock. And it might under steer a little when turning on a slick surface. But other than that you shouldn't have anything to worry about

Nothing isnt gonna have to much stress on it on the front end turning it to sharp?

EDIT: I know about the tires rubbing ful lock, I've read up on that. but what Im concerned about is any parts. I dont quite remember fully, but a while back - way before i got my 4x4 - I seen someone say not to turn to sharp in 4wd. Thats why I'm asking. IDK if that was true or not

I also just read your info on your truck. what kind of HIDs you got? I was thinking retro solution or ddmtuning. i read both are good, but retro better with service.

As long as you're not on concrete or anything similar you'll be fine, I wouldn't gun it while at full lock for extended periods of time, but you should be good
