What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1999 Chevrolet Express 2500

Your Express 2500’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Chevrolet, from back to front. It's one of the most complex systems in your Express 2500 and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1999 Chevrolet Express 2500, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Chevrolet's recommendations.

When to Get Chevrolet Express 2500 Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care.

Your Chevrolet could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.
