Toyota Highlander Transfer Case

The Toyota Highlander Transfer Case distributes engine power to both front and rear axles of the SUV, providing confidence-inspiring traction when driving over pavement, ice, or dirt. The transmission is bolted to the Transfer Case and it pushes power through driveshafts to each differential, balancing wheel speed for smooth turns. There are two main designs, part time and full time. Generally, the Toyota Highlander leans towards the full time layout that is the norm for modern AWD. At the same time, it still echoes basic part time 4WD hardware. In a part time Transfer Case, the driver can select 2WD or 4WD high on the move and stop to engage 4WD low for extra torque during slow, steep, or rocky climbs. Full-time units, similar to those found in many of today's Toyota crossovers, work with a center differential or a viscous coupling which automatically divides the power and allows the shafts to spin at different speeds to avoid binding. Worn gears or chains may produce banging noises or sluggish engagement. Regardless of whether the movement is initiated by a lever on the floor or an electric switch on the dashboard, the Transfer Case will keep the AWD Highlander ready for changing grip. The Transfer Case is essential for optimal performance in various driving conditions.
