4WD SUZUKI SWIFT 2000 1.G Transmission Service User Guide

7F-2 REAR DIFFERENTIAL
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The differential assembly uses a hypoid bevel pinion and gear.
The differential assembly is decisive in that the drive power is concentrated there. Therefore, use of genuine
parts and specified torque is compulsory. Further, because of sliding tooth meshing with high pressure between
bevel pinion and gear, it is mandatory to lubricate them by hypoid gear oil.
VISCOUS COUPLING
The 4WD vehicle is equipped with a viscous coupling (1) in front of the rear differential.
The 4WD mechanism used for this vehicle distributes optimum driving force to the front and rear wheels accord-
ing to road conditions and driving conditions.
