Transfer Case and Front
Axle
(Four-wheel Drive) Inspection
Every
12
months or at engine oil change intervals,
check front axle and transfer case and add lubricant
when necessary.
A
fluid
loss
could indicate a problem;
check and have it repaired,
if
needed. On manual
shift transfer case, oil the control lever pivot point. Check
vent hose at transfer case for kinks and proper
installation. More frequent lubrication may be required
on off-road use.
Brake System Inspection
Inspect the complete system. Inspect brake lines and
hoses for proper hook-up, binding, leaks, cracks,
chafing, etc. Inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotors
for surface condition. Inspect other brake parts,
including calipers, parking brake, etc. You may need to
have your brakes inspected more often
if
your driving
habits or conditions result in frequent braking.
