ABSTRACT:
A power unit transversely mounted in a motor vehicle has a differential with optionally provided differential gears and a connection on the housing of a transfer case, to which one of two intermediate members can optionally be attached. One intermediate member has a power take-off shaft which directly drives a propeller shaft leading to the rear-wheel drive for exclusive rear-wheel drive when the differential gears are omitted for exclusive rear-wheel drive. The other intermediate member has a fluid friction clutch which drives the propeller shaft in the case of four-wheel drive.
