What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 1983 Mitsubishi Montero

Your Montero’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles.

When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1983 Mitsubishi Montero, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Mitsubishi's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
