Drivetrain

• • Axles are double plunge, 300M stars, same used in RG’s Dakar race UTVs
  • Largest in industry ring and pinion in both front and rear
  • Patented locking CV mechanism built into front/rear differentials
  • Front differential (transaxle) is a single, complete unit
    • Cast and machined aluminum unit
    • Mechanical “dogged” locker in the front allows for shifting in and out of 4×4 locked on the fly
    • Easily removable and replaceable if there is significant front end damage
    • Torque limiter built in to help reduce wear from large impacts between front/rear end of car
      • Front and rear differentials are the same ratios (wheel turn 1:1)
    • Large, 4 spider front differential
    • Tongue and groove connection between main chassis and front bulkhead bolts in with 8 bolts + ties into both lower rear A-arm mount bolts
    • Plates where A posts bolt into above and on the side of the bulkhead
  • Transmission
    • 3 speed (P-R-N-Lo-Hi-Cruise) CVT with shift on the fly (dogged)
    • Infrared belt temperature sensor with handicaps built in to manage belt life – feature bypassable via a switch (think traction control)
    • Albins and Weddle assistance in transmission design
    • Largest input shaft in the industry
    • Primary drive gear 2.5x wider than XX
    • Torque limiter (essentially a clutch) built into loading gear to help save transmission by separating input shaft from ring/pinion – acts as a “sponge” to slip and absorb large impacts when pushing the machine harder
  • Clutching will be tuned for 32” tires
