Power Cylinder, Transfer/Forward Gearshift Switch
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Power Cylinder is a component in a truck's power steering system that assists in turning the wheels. It uses hydraulic pressure to amplify the driver's steering input, making it easier to maneuver the vehicle. The power cylinder is typically located near the steering box and consists of a piston and cylinder assembly. When the driver turns the steering wheel, pressurized fluid is directed into one side of the cylinder, which pushes the piston and turns the wheels. The Transfer/Forward Gearshift Switch is a component in a truck's transmission system that allows the driver to select between different gears while driving. The switch is typically located on or near the gearshift lever and sends electrical signals to the transmission control module to engage or disengage certain gears. In particular, it allows drivers to switch between forward and reverse gears, as well as high and low range transfer cases for off-road driving. Part number MC849488 refers specifically to a Transfer/Forward Gearshift Switch manufactured by Mitsubishi Electric Automotive America Inc.
