The reason for the drive train in vehicles is that it allows for the transfer of power to go smoothly from the engine to the wheels. Additionally, the drive train varies the amount of torque placed on the engine and transmission. Four wheel drive vehicles have a transfer case which is also known as the differential. This gear box is between the drive wheels of your car. The gear box allows for the vehicle the ability to turn at different speeds.

Gear Box Issues
The gearbox needs lubricating fluid to function properly. Overtime, the fluid can lose its viscosity and break down in the differential. This breakdown of fluid turns into a gummy, sludge like texture. This can cause major damage to the gears in the differential as well as cause wear and tear on your tires. If you find your vehicle difficult to turn when making left and right turns, this could be one sign of problems with your differential.

Servicing Your Differential
Removing the old differential fluid and replacing it with new lubricating fluid is the best method to solve differential and gear box problems. The Gearbox operates the drive train of the vehicle under high heat and stress. The gearbox fluid lubricates the internal parts: bearings, gears, and shafts. Replacing the fluid will extend the life of the internal gears.
