The Chevrolet Silverado Transfer Case delivers power from the engine to both the front and rear axles, enabling the truck to switch from four wheel drive to two wheel drive. Mounted onto the transmission, the Transfer Case delivers power via the driveshafts to the differentials, while its part-time form allows drivers to choose 2WD on dry pavement or 4WD High or Low for mud, snow, and rock crawling. Older models incorporated a floor lever which linked directly to the Transfer Case. However, many recent Chevrolet Silverado models utilize an electric motor which is commanded by a dash switch to allow a smoother engagement. The full-time and all-wheel-drive versions of the Transfer Case utilize a center differential or viscous coupling. This allows the output shafts to rotate at differing rates to prevent binding on tight corners. When 4WD is selected, part-time units favor off-roaders by locking both axles together. Meanwhile, AWD systems typically send most power forward with rearward torque sharing only when slip occurs. Common wear points are the drive chain or the gears inside the Transfer Case. In case the teeth break or the connections become loose, you will hear banging noises or the mode will shift after a delay. Over the years, Chevrolet engineering has balanced strength and versatility, giving every Silverado driver confident traction on changing terrain while still allowing quiet highway cruising.
