Your assumption is right there will always be some power directed to the front wheels,I would keep it in high not high lock that way the front wheels wont be locked in and working all the time, just when there is a loss of traction. Not one of Dodge's best innovations. Ive even known people to remove the front drive shaft so that they can get at least some decent gas mileage when its not mud season.
A loud clicking sound coming from the front of your car when you are driving straight would be the result of a bad CV joint. This is something that should be checked out right away.
Basically it means driving as if all other users are likely to do something wrong. Be prepared for the unexpected and do not assume people will behave as they should.
No because it mite come down and kill u
The first time is one time too many. If you do not carry insurance, which is the law, then you should not be driving. Insurance covers the event of accident and protects those who might be in an accident with you.
It depends on which setting you select. 4 Part Time is basically rear wheel drive with the center diff acting as a limited slip diff. 4 Full Time is kind of like AWD, and suitable for every day driving. 4 Lo is only for off-road use.
...aimed straight forward; not turned.
There is a plastic rod inside of the shifter arm, it unlocks the shifter from the park position when the button on the shifter handle is pressed. So, press in on the shifter button and pull the shift handle straight UP (you might have to pull hard). You should be able to remove the broken pieces of the plastic rod with some wire. You might have to go to a junk yard for a replacement.
10 hours..?
The powered tires. On a front wheel drive car, the front wheels. On rear wheel drive, the rear wheels.
You are supposed to watch your mirrors as well.
This should be really simple, if you've already removed all of the bolts which hold the shifter in including the one behind the shifter hole in the trans, the shifter should slide right down into the transmission (provided the transmission was in neutral when you pulled the shifter)
You should check on the recalls for your specific vehicle and/or call Daimler Chrysler. There were recalls on the shifter, but I do not recall what year(s). Once you find that out, your nearest Jeep dealer will replace the shifter at no charge. This issue was dealing with the shifter popping out of gear when parked OR when driving. Good Luck!

Ease off the gas pedal and pull off the roadway.
more specific please. shifter handles should just unscrew.
depends on if you are parked on a hill or not on an up hill with a curb turn away from the curb, on an hill with no curb turn to the ps of vehicle, other than that you should always keep your wheels straight when parked on a flat or even surface no grade!
The conventional way of towing cars with the emergency brake on can not be (that is, with two wheels on the street). ... If two non-driving wheels on the ground are towing your car and the parking brake is released, there should be no damage to the car.
