ABSTRACT:
A lightweight limited slip differential for a tubular or independent axle assembly. The differential biases the torque applied to the wheels through clutch rings engaged on the pinions. The pinions include a mating surface that engage a similar profile on the clutch rings. The clutch rings may be frictionally restrained or coupled together so that the pinion movement is restrained to bias the torque between the wheels.
