Amboid and Hypoid… If you’ve ever heard these words, I bet you never gave them much more consideration.

The terms refer to how the driveshaft is oriented for entry into the drive axle.
You can make a vehicle All Wheel Drive (AWD) by utilizing a driving front axle powered by a transfer case. The transfer case will have a drive shaft to the steer axle. This aids with traction in off-road applications at speeds under 35 mph. The cab will be raised from the normal build position to gain clearance for the additional drivetrain equipment.
