ABSTRACT:
Spring retainer plates for a slip limiting differential are disclosed. Each retainer plate is paired with a similar retainer plate and is adapted to exert a preload on the side gear clutching mechanism of the differential by coil springs interposed between the plates. Each retainer plate has a transverse wall which is generally parallel to the axis of the pinion shaft and has parallel side walls. Each parallel side wall has a generally circular aperture through which the pinion shaft passes. By providing a complete circle of metal around the pinion shaft, plate deformation or breakage is minimized.
