ABSTRACT:
A multiple disk clutch is provided for a rear wheel differential of a vehicle. A restricting torque for the clutch is set by vehicle speed, longitudinal acceleration and lateral acceleration of the vehicle. A large steering angle at a low vehicle speed is detected in accordance with the vehicle speed and a steering angle. In response to the restricting torque and a detected large steering angle at a low vehicle speed, the clutch is operated to reduce a restricting operation for the clutch.
