The mechanical shift transfer case is a 3-piece aluminum design. The unit transfers engine power from the transmission to the front and rear axles. Under normal driving conditions the unit is in 2H, but when desired, the operator may shift into 4H or 4L. The transfer case is shifted manually. The unit is lubricated by a positive displacement fluid pump that channels fluid flow through holes in the mainshaft.
