Simple way to fix that … just pull the front drive shaft. Im sure the trx would be fine. The semi float dana 60 rear and ZF trans are both pretty robust. I guess perhaps yea the front axle shafts would be vulnerable given angles and travel but those are equally vulnerable on a Raptor. So yea im not a trx fan boy but I'm not buying that it was built with a fragile drive train. Dont forget a lot of goons fit spacers and lifts with big tires on trx . That is probably responsible for more driveline breaks than anything else.
We are talking about the rear drivetrain components not being up to task to taking the full brunt of 700+hp to the rear wheels only, I already know the front end can’t handle the power w/o distributing the bulk of the power to the rear lol
The 1/2 shafts/axles, yoke & pinion, rear driveshaft & diff is what they’re worried about most likely
This is why ALL that stuff gets upgraded when you go to a heavy duty 2500 Cummins
I can’t think of ONE logical reason (other than protecting drivetrain components long term) for the TRX to not offer a 2wd setting. I can think of plenty of reason why they WOULD want to have it available - esp knowing the Raptor does, the power wagon does too….
Nope…only logical reason I can muster is they were worried about TRX owners grenading those components on the street doing hard launches/burnouts/towing etc
