Abstract
A differential case has therein a bevel gear type differential mechanism, difference limiting main and pilot clutches, and a cam mechanism for increasing engagement force of the pilot clutch to be transmitted via a transmission member for actuation of the main clutch. Vehicular axles inserted in the differential cases are connected to torque-outputting side gears with circlips for removal prevention thereof and a thrust block to fill a space therebetween. The circlips and the thrust block are applied from the outside through apertures formed in the differential case and the transmission member.
