[QUOTE="grubstake, post: 565560, member: 4012"] Pure speculation (I'm no mechanic), but is it possible that the front wheels are free-wheeling, so you are not actually in 4WD? If so, that would lose the engine braking effect at the front, where most of the weight is transferred on a steep downhill and most of the braking force is needed. Do you have manual free-wheel hubs on Tritons? [/QUOTE]
