FRONT AXLE (4X4)

INTRODUCTION

The 4X4 front axle is an independent suspension

type with electrical Axle Disconnect Mechanism.

This can be engaged and disengaged during

driving and there is no need to reverse the vehicle

to disconnect the front axle.

The wheel hub bearing is a unitised bearing which

does not need lubrication. Also there is no Hub

play adjustment reducing the maintenance

required.

The Above pinion design results in less propeller

shaft inclination and thereby reducing torsional

vibrations.

In vehicles with ABS the toner ring is mounted on

the Front Axle drive shaft.
