Abstract: A front differential includes an outer ring spline mounted on an inner housing for rotation with the ring gear joinder, an inner ring spline mounted on one of the semi-axle gears, and a plurality of friction members disposed between the inner ring and the outer ring. The friction members are interleaved plates which can create a partial friction state and a fully locked state of the front differential through application of axial pressure force. The spline mounting of the inner and outer rings allows axial movement so the axial pressure force application is more accurate despite manufacturing tolerances. A ball bearing is arranged between the differential housing and the ring gear joinder. The ball bearing is connected to the differential housing by a clearance fit which allows the ball bearing to move axially relative to the differential housing.
