DIFFERENTIAL SYSTEM


  1. CONSTRUCTION


    1. Differential Pre-torque Mechanism


      1. A conical spring is provided between the side gear and the side gear washer in the differential. The load of the conical spring applies a friction force to the sliding area to improve the start off performance of the vehicle on slippery road surfaces.
