Difficulty getting the transfer box from 4wd back to 2wd

Just for reference, should the 'going backwards' be done in 4WD?

ha ha yes if its stuck in 4wd then the "going backwards" would be done.
When transmission wind up happens reverse with gentle pressure on the lever till it pops out of 4. Or if your worried about damage just jack one wheel up. Or my preferred method just rock the vehicle from one side to the other till you see a wheel spin loose.
Well I went out yesterday and the transfer lever was again stiff going back into 2wd. Reversed literally 5m applying gentle pressure to the lever and bingo- back in 2wd! Can cope with that if that's all it needs
