Ok so what I got from this was....place the sandbags over the axle, worry less about wear and keep 4hi engaged more, and invest in dedicated winter tires for the long winters up here. I appreciate everyone's advice and I've done all three....I moved the sandbags, I'm using 4wd more, and I ordered a set of Blizzaks.

Shovel the snow from your walk way and drive way into the bed of your truck you gain weight for traction and clear snow out of your way plus when it warms up and you don't need the weight the snow melts out and you don't have to unload it like you do your sandbags

Also if you park outside in ak, you will need heaters, battery heater, oil, block, and tranny. Ask the neighbors. If your vehicle becomes cold saturated, it won't start. People north of the north slope don't shut them off during the cold weather. I know a state trooper in talkeetna and they just leave them run.
