We did an insane 10 mile jeep trail and only put it in 4wd twice as a precaution... that was downhill. Up hill we wouldn't have made it in 4wd. The uphill road was 20 miles and didn't really ever need 4wd either but it was bone dry. That was our stock suspension 2004 long bed crew cab with stock 2015 Ram highway 33" tires on factory 18" wheels. We were about dying on both roads with 75 psi in all the tires and 50 psi in the rear airbags. At the bottom of the shortcut was a sign that said basically Jeeps only. Little late on that warning, had we broken something up there it would have had to be fixed in place as no recovery truck could have gotten it out. In the end it was a blast because nothing bad did happen and it was beautiful.
