The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Land Cruiser's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Toyota, from the axles to the transmission. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1995 Toyota Land Cruiser, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Toyota's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
