Transfer Gearshift 4wd Rail Actuator
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Transfer Gearshift 4wd Rail Actuator, also known as part number ME516530, is a critical part of a commercial truck's four-wheel drive system. This actuator is responsible for engaging and disengaging the transfer case, which is the component that splits power between the front and rear axles. When the driver engages the four-wheel drive system, the Transfer Gearshift 4wd Rail Actuator moves the rail to engage the transfer case, allowing power to be sent to all four wheels. Conversely, when the driver disengages the four-wheel drive system, the actuator moves the rail to disengage the transfer case, returning the truck to two-wheel drive mode. Without this important part, a commercial truck's four-wheel drive system would not function properly, making it difficult to navigate through rough terrain or inclement weather conditions.
