ok my 97 range rover with a 4.0 drives goods and shifts like it should, airbags work great but when i put high to go into 4x4 and shift into 4x4 the gear light on my dash comes on, what does that mean? i have never taken my truck offroad since i bought it 3 years ago, but i plan going hunting with some friends soon and might need to use the 4x4.

Not sure which light you mean, but your RR is always in 4x4 since it is all time 4 wheel drive, basically this means it has 3 open diffs and provides power to all 4 wheels all the time.
You may be putting it into low range? Don't recall all the lights on all vehicles.

the light comes on when i switch into the low 4x4, and the light looks like gears with a / in between.

Just remember your RR still is technically only 1 wheel drive in the mud, it has 3 open diffs, so the first tire to spin is it. Use the brake a little to act as traction control as needed (basically what the newer Rovers are doing) and you should have fun.
