ABSTRACT:
An enclosure for receiving therein a differential case of an automotive vehicle is arranged adjacent an internal combustion engine and is connected to an oil pan arranged beneath the engine. The enclosure is inclined at a predetermined angle about the horizontal axis of the engine. The enclosure has a pair of openings in the side wall thereof through which a pair of axle shafts pass. The axle shafts are also inclined at the same angle as the inclined angle of the enclosure. One of the axle shafts passes through openings formed in the side walls of the oil pan so as to extend to the opposite side of the oil pan. The inclinations of the enclosure and axle shafts allows the height of an engine hood and the width of the vehicular body to be decreased.
