In normal driving (as shown in the capture), High mode was used. In High mode, direct high range gearing was used with the center differential unlocked. -- Last edit: 2012-07-07 17:21:47

The Suburban’s drive system is sending torque to all four wheels at all times, whereas the F-250’s drive system is sending torque to just the rear wheels. You can see the Ford’s front live axle and how it’s front differential is offset on the drivers side, vs. the Suburban’s front live axle and how it’s front differential is offset on the passengers side.
