This is how I see it.
FWD only: autobox > driveshafts > wheels.
Less load as FWD will either spiny wheels or tc will kick in reducing load on autobox.
4WD: autobox > Front driveshafts > wheels.
> Ird > propshaft > rear diff > Rear driveshafts > wheels.
Plus Ird oil > rear diff oil, not to mention the load/resistance of the VCU. And the hippo had got to weigh more than any FWD vehicle.
add all that to a muddy field pulling a horse box uphill.
That's just got be more strain on the oil/box compared to a normal FWD family run around.
The box may be good for 300nm but are the oils?
