    Excellent informative video. Apart from convenience I don't understand why toyota went with this system over the old free wheeling hubs. If my understanding is correct, with the ADD disengaged (running in 2wd), you still have the internal spider gears turning as well as one axle/cv. With the earlier system, when you unlocked the free-wheeling hubs, you effectively unlocked the wheel from the axle so the only thing turning was the wheel and the wheel bearing; none of the axles or internal diff components rotated with the old system.

    @josephlecheminant2231 Год назад

    Very helpful as I’m trying to figure out why my 4wd is being noisy. The noise goes away as soon as it’s back in 2wd. Now I see what moves in 4wd and what doesn’t move in 2wd. I have a 2005 sequoia.
    So looks like the noise could be the transfer case chain, the front prop, or the ring gear of the front diff?
    I checked/changes fluids already..
    If you happen to see this comment I’d love any additional insight!

  • @fondupot
    @fondupot 3 года назад

    So I'm trying to diagnose a noise coming from my front end 2019 GMC Canyon (dealer can't recreate). Best I can describe it is a rotational clunk/thudding. I can only hear it at lower speeds (up to about 35 mph). At first I thought maybe it was tires, so I rotated tires, no change in noise. I checked wheel bearings, they appear solid. I jacked up the truck and spun both front tires. When I spin the driver side, I hear a clicking noise, that matches the speed of the tire as I spin it. This at first appeared to be the noise I was looking for. The passenger side does not have the same noise. Now after watching your video, I understand now why the pass side doesn't have any noise, because it's not spinning the side gears in the diff. But I'm still concerned that I can hear the side gears spinning so loudly when I do the driver side. Is it common to hear the side gears spinning so loudly? I made a video on my channel and you can hear the difference between driver and passenger side. Any input you can provide would be great.

    the ring gear?

I already replaced my engine and transmission with 4WD transmission with the electric shift actuator. I am currently running cables to the motor to get it to engage into differnt modes, i have the selector switch here with me. the front axle has also been installed with its shifter actuator motor. Kindly assist me with how to connect the electrical wiring to get them properly setup.

    My 2014 tundra has this setup. when in neutral, and shifting from 4 low to 4 high, i intermittently get a long shift time or it will make a god awful grinding noise under the truck like grinding gears. any idea on what to diagnose first? i first noticed very long times when shifting in and out of 4wd a few months ago. I was able to duplicate 2wd to 4wd issue without grinding, just flashing 4wd light. i was under the truck and heard the motor on the transfer case move and the one on the front diff move just no confirmation/

    great job professor! I have a 1996 Toyota Land Cruiser with a full-time 4x4 systems. the previous owner remove the front prop shaft. I went to reconnect it but the flange on th front diff is spinning freely instead of being locked in place. is my problem in the diff or the Axle shafts? I appreciate your feedback.

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  8 лет назад +1

      +Rupert Gaznabbi Hi, if the front diff spins freely, it is not a problem, the ADD actuator has not engaged the right hand axle shaft. That is normal. When the actuator does engage, then it will not spin freely. Try putting the transfer case in 4WD. That should also cause the front diff to engage and stop spinning freely. Thanks for watching!

    Great video!! My 2003 4Runner has multi-mode 4WD system. When I switch from 2WD to 4H, the 4WD light and center diff lock light blink for a long long time before it become solid, and sometimes it won't become solid at all. During this blinking time, the drive train binds when turning. Could this be issue with the transfer case or the ADD system? Thanks for you time!!

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  8 лет назад

      +Heavenscape Hi, normally the blinking 4WD light indicates that the front automatic disconnecting differential (ADD) has not connected yet (not in 4WD). You indicate that the powertrain binds at times during this situation. That tells me that your front differential is connecting and it is really in 4WD, but the front ADD actuator's internal 4WD switch is not functioning correctly. It sounds like you need a new ADD actuator assembly. Best wishes.

    I think you have given me a clue, I will have to shift my high/low lever into the high position & see if the 4x4 kicks on. As a follow-up question, what is affected by moving the high/low lever on these older systems, does this lever affect parts in the transfer case or the diff or both? if you can give me a clue about ghetto functionality of this lever, then I will certainty get theism 4x4 system up and running again. thank you in advance.

    When cruising in 2wd, with the r/f axle isolated and the ring/pinion/front propeller shaft/chain in transfer case stationary, what provides lubrication in the front diff and transfer case?

    The presenter did an excellent job, HOWEVER, I think he made a critical mistake, at the very end of this video, he said "to shift back into 2wd from 4wd, we need to first disconnect the mode shift fork in the transfer case and then disconnect the ADD (automatic disconnecting diff)", something like this, actually, I believe the sequence should be REVERSED for the same reason, we don't want the side gears in the front diff case to fight each other at ANY time.

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  7 лет назад

      The front and rear axle gear ratios must be identical or you will break something in the powertrain. Different gear ratios would try to make the front and rear tires rotate at different speeds while driving; they cannot rotate at different speeds, so something will break. Best wishes.

My only problem I'm not clear on is when you re assemble the actuator to the transfer case , is where exactly is that rod supposed to be on that gear inside actuator. Most on forums are saying for 2wd the rod should be pushed all the way forward towards the Transfer case but there have been a few discrepancies. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you

    Hi professor, I have a question about locking front differentials on a 4wd vehicle. If the differential is permanently locked, but the transfer case is in 2wd and the automatic disconnecting differential is disconnected, does the diff locker cause the entire front end to rotate as if the ADD were engaged and thus reduce fuel economy? I am curious about this as there is a relatively cheap front differential locker for my 2012 Xterra called the Lokka that is permanently locked but can give slightly like a Detroit locker. Thank you for the wonderful presentation.

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  5 лет назад +1

      Thank you. Yes, it does, but it would be very difficult (dangerous) to steer since the locked diff would not allow the front tires to rotate at different speeds while cornering. I do not know of a good solution for the front axle of that vehicle.

      @RagingAura 5 лет назад +1

      @@WeberAuto Hi professor, thank you for the reply. I've heard that the front diff locker can cause severe understeer and oversteer when in 4wd, as this would mean the ADD is connected and the front differential is locked. But since the ADD disconnects when the vehicle is in 2wd, would the only drawback in 2wd be reduced fuel economy, or do both front wheels remain locked together even with ADD is disconnected?

    hello professor,
    I am going to disassemble my front differential to figure out why the yoke spins without engaging the front wheels. I have two questions, first, could u tell me what is the correct preload for the pinion gear when I reassemble it? second, do I need to remove the Birfield joints and connecting axle rods in order to remove ring gear from the differential? I have a ‘96 Landcruiser with a regular open differential. thanks.

    hello professor
    the good news is I have finally purchased a used ring & pinion set for my 1996 Landcruiser. it's a 8 inch reverse rotation with a 4.10 ratio, as you had suggested. you had given me the backlash & pinion preload numbers (thanks again.) however, I would greatly appreciate if you could also give me the side bearing preload number for this truck front differential. that is the final piece of this puzzle after which I can begin the assembly of the differential. thank you in advance.

    • @WeberAuto

      The side bearing preload is 6-8 inch pounds higher than the pinion bearing preload alone (as measured at the pinion nut). Best wishes!

  • @rupertgaznabbi1228
    @rupertgaznabbi1228 8 лет назад +1

    thanks for your prompt response. however, looking at the transfer case & front diff of my `96 land cruiser I don't see an ADD switch, as you mentioned. this is a full-time 4x4 systems so perhaps there is no such switch to disconnect & reconnect the 4x4 systems. the real question is how do you disconnect & reconnect the 4x4 systems on an older transfer case & diff. could moving the high/low lever next to the gear selector do the trick? does this lever have a neutral position? I look forward to your response. thanks.

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  8 лет назад

      +Rupert Gaznabbi You are correct, the full-time AWD system does not have a front ADD, so if your front pinion spins freely, you really have problems! On older systems, the transfer case lever must be in neutral to disconnect engine power from the differentials, or 2WD to disconnect only the front diff. I hope that helps.

  • @tiagomastrogiovanni1794
    @tiagomastrogiovanni1794 7 лет назад +1

    So, you are saying it is bad to have the fork in the ADD engaged because then all the front is moving regardless of whether the transfer case is in 4wd or not? Also, isn't it better, for dependability purposes, to lock the fork in place and disconnect the vacuum line to it, to ensure dependable 4wd functionality?
    Also, how much does locking the fork in place, via a hose tie, actually affect the gas mileage?

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  7 лет назад

      Yes, It is bad for two reasons: 1. It causes all the parts in the front axle, front driveshaft, and transfer case to rotate even though they are not being used. This causes parts to wear out prematurely. 2. It decreases fuel economy about 3 mpg on the vehicles I have owned because of the additional load from all of the unnecessarily rotating parts.

    Awesome video, but you lost me when you started talking about the purpose of the DDA in the front differential/axle to prevent the right side wheel turning in the opposite direction of the left side wheel.
    Rear wheel drive cars don't have DDA in the rear axle and yet we still can push them while they're on the ground and both wheels will turn in the same direction; That's the purpose of the differential to be in there to make the car turn smoothly and reduce tires wear and tear.
    Please correct me if I'm wrong. And again thank you for the videos I really enjoy watching'em... Happy Easter :-)

      +Max oobbxxx Hi, it is not bad to always have them rotating as long as the side gear backlash is correct and the fluid level is correct. Almost every manufacturer is using this type of system, not just Toyota. Thanks for watching!

    • @maxoobbxxx8032
      @maxoobbxxx8032 8 лет назад

      +WeberAuto I guess, now I understand why ― with the DDA disconnecting the power, the spider gears essentially freewheel, with hardly a surface contact. In this case, even the side gears, which lack proper bearings, can last forever.
      My confusion stemmed from a seemingly common occurrence of destroyed diffs due to frequently getting stuck on ice or in the mud, and letting one wheel spin violently (or doing lots of "burnouts"). But in these cases the spider gear set is loaded with power from the engine. Am I one the right track here?

    • @WeberAuto
      @WeberAuto  8 лет назад

      Max oobbxxx Hi, yes, that is correct, but also remember that under those circumstances excessing speed and centripetal force (on the oil) causes a severe lack of lubrication which leads to seized spiders to the spider pinion shaft and eventual breakage of parts.

      Selectable 4WD just replaces the mechanical shift linkage of the transfer case with an electric motor doing the same thing. That scenario should only occur during the transition into 4WD. The transfer case must always engage before the front axle/diff can connect.
