ABSTRACT:
A drive train having an axle assembly with a differential and a multi-speed transmission outputs rotary power to an input pinion of the differential. The multi-speed transmission includes a positive or dog clutch with teeth having staggered heights. The staggered tooth height configuration provides a larger effective engagement area with less tooth lash.
