Off road driving is one of the most adventurous and rewarding hobbies there is, but for those who practice it, it needs you to really understand your vehicle including four wheel drive and how it performs off road as well as a thorough understanding of the terrain.
To drive off road, four wheel drive is essential and there are three main types of four-wheel drive systems. The first is permanent four wheel drive which uses something called a differential to divide the drive to each of the wheels and also in a flexible way so that when turning corners each wheel takes a slightly different route.
The second type is a manually selectable four wheel drive and the third is an automatic selectable four wheel drive. Both of these systems have the same principle in that the drive is permanently allocated to one axle, which is usually the rear and then the other axle can be connected as required. The idea is for the vehicle to move into four wheel drive only when needed and drivers should check their handbooks to see how to select it as some vehicles can be changed while moving and others have to be stationary.
