If you're gunning it through lots of mud or snow, 4Hi Lock is the perfect mode for it. You do not want to rev to high or go too fast with 4Lo Lock. In my experience, I've left 4Lo when I'm really in the ruts, and 4Hi lock for everything else. This is mainly speaking for mudding or deep snow, which is the majority of offroading that I do.

Someone else can tell you about rock crawling, there's not too much of that where I am.

*edit* forgot to put lock after 4Hi, don't want to confuse it with the default 4Hi mode...
