Kind of akin to leaving the power divider in on a semi? I drove a loaded semi from here at home to somewhere around West point Nebraska, maybe 140 miles with the power divider locked in. I finally figured out why the truck was hard to shift and flipped the lever to off. Put many thousands more miles on it without any signs of extra wear.

Maybe twenty years ago a young lady who was living with us for awhile drove my 79 Dodge pickup to town and back with the transfer case in low range. That thing has 4:10 finals and 35 MPH is screaming in low range. She got home and told me something was wrong with the engine because she couldn't get it above 50! And the engine smells like oil. I lifted the hood and oil was running out from under the front of the intake manifold. I don't know how many RPM's it had been revving but the oil was probably from the valley under the intake manifold being full of oil that wasn't able to drain back down fast enough. Dodge 360's must be tough or I was lucky.
