Re: 6 wd, what wheels to power

In addition to what Billfred said, there is a big issue wit powering only the rear two. A 6WD drop can rock a bit between being on the front 4 wheels and the back 4 wheels. If you power only the rear 2 wheels when you rock to the front 4 you will not be able to drive very well at all (the others may still touch some and give you slight traction). If you were going to power any set of two it should be the middle, but I second the recommendation to power all of them.
