ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to an improved all-terrain vehicle axle assembly allowing lateral movement of the axle while allowing the axle to rotate. The axle has a central elongated tooth portion which meshes with an arrower outer gear carried by a bearing mounted in a housing mounted attached to the frame of the associated vehicle. The bearing allows rotation of the axle while the sliding interengagement between the outer gear and the inner elongated tooth portion allows lateral movement of the axle with respect to the frame of the vehicle. The drive means for applying torque to the axle includes a similar elongated gear meshing with a narrower gear allowing torque to be imparted to the axle at all lateral positions thereof.
