ABSTRACT:
A limited slip differential for a vehicle includes an engine, a transmission, a differential mechanism operable to distribute an output from the engine which is transmitted by way of the transmission to one of a pair of left and right front wheels and a pair of left and right rear wheels, a transfer mechanism which is disposed closer to a center of the vehicle in the left-right direction than the differential mechanism, and a distribution controller operable to control amounts of distributed outputs. The differential mechanism is disposed in a first side of the transfer mechanism. The distribution controller is disposed in a second side of the transfer mechanism which is opposite to the first side, and includes a clutch mechanism operable to limit a differential action between the one of the drive shafts and the output shaft.
