Your welcome and I'm glad its sorted.
If you are going to be hopping between tarmac and non-grippy surfaces (like going between green-lanes), it is ok to leave the manual hubs in 4x4 and just put the transfer box into 2wd and back to 4wd as needed. The front prop, diff and half-shafts will be driven by the wheels, leading to slightly poorer fuel consumption. No damage will occur however (as long as you put it in 2wd for grippy surfaces) and it saves you getting in & out of the car at every surface change. At the end of the trip, flick the hubs back off for the drive home
The reverse of this can be used to get 2wd low-box, which can be useful for maneuvering trailers
