REAR AXLE
1. STRUCTURE
The rear axle of 4WD is constructed as shown above. Power is transmitted from the transmission through the rear
wheel drive shaft (17) to the bevel pinion shaft (16), then to the bevel gear (12) and to the differential gear assembly
(8).
The power through the differential side gear (19) is transmitted to the differential yoke shaft (20), and to the bevel
gear shaft (22) through the bevel gears (21), (5) in the rear axle gear case (4).
The revolution is greatly reduced by the bevel gears (23), (3), then the power is transmitted to the rear wheel hub
(1).
The differential system allows each wheel to rotate at a different speed to make turning easier.
