What type of front axle assembly is used in the 2003 Chevrolet Blazer, and how does it function? Posted by Customer
A:
4WD models use a fully independent front axle assembly consisting of a differential and a pair of drive axles with inner and outer constant velocity (CV) joints.

Q:
What is the purpose of the optional locking limited-slip rear axle, and how does it work for the 1996 GMC Sonoma? Posted by Customer
A:
The optional locking limited-slip rear axle allows for normal operation until one wheel loses traction. This differential includes a pair of clutch "cones" that slow the rotation of the differential case when one wheel is on a firm surface and the other on a slippery one, equalizing the rotation speed of the axleshaft driving the wheel with traction.
