Trac-Lok Rear Axle — If Equipped
The Trac-Lok rear axle provides a constant driving force to
both rear wheels and reduces wheel spin caused by the loss
of traction at one driving wheel. If traction differs between
the two rear wheels, the differential automatically propor
-
tions the usable torque by providing more torque to the
wh
eel
that has traction.
Trac-Lok is especially helpful during slippery driving condi-
tions. With both rear wheels on a slippery surface, a slight
a
ppli
cation of the accelerator will supply maximum traction.

WARNING!
Failure to engage a transfer case position completely can
cause
transfer case damage or loss of power and vehicle
control. You could have a collision. Do not drive the
vehicle unless the transfer case is fully engaged.
WARNING!
On vehicles equipped with a limited-slip differential,
never
run the engine with one rear wheel off the ground.
The vehicle may drive through the rear wheel remaining
on the ground and cause you to lose control of your
vehicle.
