Transaxle




- The E150F transaxle has been compactly designed by arranging the transmission, the center differential, the front differential and the transfer on the same quadruple case axle.
- The center differential, which compensates the difference in rotation speed between the front and rear wheels, utilizes bevel gear to provide durability and reliability by distributing the engine power from the transmission 50/50 to both front and rear propeller shafts. This center differential has been equipped with a control coupling which functions as a LSD.

Transaxle oil E50 (08885-80206) or equivalent
Recommended oil
Oil grade: API GL-5
