Four Wheel Drive Inspection

Four-wheel drive (4WD) enables vehicles to power all four wheels, crucial for enhanced traction on snow, ice, and off-road terrains. There are two types: part-time and full-time. Part-time 4WD allows drivers to engage or disengage it as needed for challenging traction conditions. Full-time 4WD continuously distributes power to all wheels and operates on any surface.

The primary objective of a 4WD system is to transmit torque to prevent wheel slippage. Components include differentials, hubs,
and the transfer case. The transfer case directs power to both front and rear axles, while hubs secure the wheels. Regular inspections during 4WD service ensure all components function optimally, maintaining vehicle performance.

Why Should You Have Four Wheel Drive Inspection Services Performed at County Tire Center, Inc?

We understand the importance of having and maintaining an operable 4WD system. Our staff knows that transfer cases deal with a high amount of heat and friction that often negatively affect the fluid used in the operation of the gears of this component. If the fluid in your transfer case is contaminated, our 4WD inspection service can help.

Our service staff will also inspect or examine the gears, shafts, and hubs on your vehicle. Faulty hubs can prevent a part-time 4WD vehicle from switching between driving modes. If you experience any problems engaging or disengaging from a part-time 4WD vehicle, or you suspect the time for a checkup has arrived, give us a visit for a four wheel drive inspection.
