Abstract
A power dividing differential has a hollow shaft subdivided into an input side section and an output side section. The input side section is connection to a drive, and the output side section is drivingly connected to a differential pinion meshing with a pair of side gears. One side gear drives a front wheel drive shaft extending axially through the hollow shaft, and the other side gear is drivingly connected to a differential housing which in turn is drivingly connected to a rear wheel drive shaft. A sleeve is slidable on the hollow shaft between a first position spaced from the differential housing and a second position engaged with the differential housing, thereby locking the differential.
