What Does a Transfer Case Do?
In vehicles equipped with full-time or part-time four-wheel drive, the transfer case is responsible for routing engine power to both the front and rear axles, depending on the selected driving mode. The transfer case is typically mounted just behind the transmission.
Vehicles with standard two-wheel drive don’t require a transfer case, as power is only sent to a single axle—either front or rear—making the component unnecessary in those drivetrains.
Most 4WD vehicles use chain-driven transfer cases, which are favored for their quieter operation. However, due to their added durability, gear-driven transfer cases are often the better choice for off-road enthusiasts or those needing extra strength.
The transfer case allows drivers to switch between drive modes, such as 2WD, neutral, high-range 4WD, and low-range 4WD. When in two-wheel drive, power flows to the rear wheels. Switching to four-wheel drive sends torque to the front and rear axles for improved traction.
