DESCRIPTION




MS140 Exploded View







The MS140 is an all-wheel-drive transfer case system that divides power between the front and rear differentials and transmits power to both axles at all times. Its planetary center differential (13) delivers approximately 62 percent of the engine torque to the rear axle and 38 percent to the front.


IDENTIFICATION






The transfer case name can be decoded as follows:

- M = Magna
- S = Steyr
- 1 = Single speed transfer case
- 4 = relative torque capacity
- 0 = Full time with an open differential

The transfer case (1) has a barcode label (3) applied to the right side of the rear transfer case housing to provide important part number and build information.
