|---|---|---|
| Rear Axle | Oscillating | |
| Front Axle - Traction Aid - Standard | Manual differential lock | |
| Rear Axle - Oscillation Angle By Tire Size - 23.5 R25 | 13 degrees | |
| Rear Axle - Traction Aid - Optional | Auto differential lock | |
| Note (1) | M Series axles are designed to handle extreme applications resulting in reliable performance and durable life. | |
| Note (2) | The rear axle can oscillate to 13 degrees helping to ensure all four wheels stay on the ground providing stability even in the roughest terrain for excellent stability and traction. | |
| Note (3) | External caliper disc parking brakes mounted to the input shaft of the front axles. Since they are external, they do not have the inefficiencies of enclosed wet parking brakes due to brake discs running in oil nor is there any oil to change reducing fuel and maintenance costs. External caliper parking brakes are easily accessible for inspection and service. | |
