1. OVERVIEW
The propeller shaft transfers the power through the transmission and transfer case to the front/rear
axle differential carrier (final reduction gear).
It is manufactured by a thin rounded steel pipe to have the strong resisting force against the torsion
and bending.
Both ends of propeller shaft are connected to the spider and the center of propeller shaft is
connected to the spline to accommodate the changes of the height and length.
The rubber bushing that covers the intermediate bearing keeps the balance of rear propeller shaft
and absorbs its vibration.
Function of propeller shaft ▶
Transmits driving torque.
Compensates the angle change (universal joint / CV joint).
Compensates the axial length change (splines for the slip joint). -

1. OVERVIEW
By using the planetary gear sets, two-gears shift type part time transfer case achieves direct
connection when selecting 4WD "HIGH" and 2.48 of reduction gear ratio when selecting 4WD
"LOW". The silent chain in transfer case transfers the output power to front wheels.
The simple operation of switches on instrument panel allows to shift between "2H" and "4H" easily
while driving (for 4L: stop vehicle first). The warning lamp warns the driver when the system is
defective.

Description Mode Conditions
Driving
mode2H 2 Wheel drive
(rear wheel)Rear-wheel drive mode. This is used under
normal or high-speed driving conditions on
public roads or highways.
4H 4 Wheel drive
(high speed)This is used under sandy, muddy or snow-
covered road conditions
4L 4 Wheel drive
(low speed)This is used for maximum traction.
When cornering with low speed in 4WD
condition, there could be tire dragging, some
mechanical shocks and resistances in
vehicle’s drive train. These are normal
conditions due to internal resistance in the
drive train when the 4WD system is properly
working

(low speed)For Automatic Transmission:
For Manual Transmission:
Stop the vehicle on level ground and
move the gear selector lever into the
“N” position. Turn the switch to the
desired position. ·
Stop the vehicle on level ground and
move the gear selector lever into the
“N” position. Then turn the switch to
the desired position while depressing
the clutch pedal. ·
To make the mode change easily, stop
the vehicle on level ground and turn the
mode switch to the desired position and
move the shift lever to "N"-"R"-"N" while
depressing the brake pedal.
