MP140 Transfer Case - Description






DESCRIPTION










With an automatic transmission, the MP 140 single-speed transfer case is used in Nitro's new Full- Time Four-Wheel Drive System. It provides convenient full-time four-wheel drive operation and functions seamlessly with Nitro's standard Traction Control and ESP (Electronic Stability Program) features to provide enhanced traction and stability on low-traction surfaces. The MP designation refers to Magna Powertrain, the successor to New Venture Gear.

The MP140 single-speed transfer case provides the following benefits:

- Convenient operation: No shift lever or driver interaction required.
- Smooth operation and vehicle stability under all conditions because torque is constantly being shared among all wheels.
- Traction to maintain forward motion under most conditions through 48 front/52 rear percent torque distribution.
- Enhanced traction and stability provided by the Traction Control and Electronic Stability Program (ESP) working in tandem with full-time four-wheel-drive. Traction Control and ESP provide resistance to any wheel that is slipping to allow additional torque transfer to wheels with traction.
- Robust design and sealing for reliability.
- No maintenance required.
