ABSTRACT:
A clutch assembly comprising a cylindrical body having first clutch teeth and fastened to a wheel hub. A sleeve member is fixed to an outer end of a drive axle and is located within the cylindrical body. A clutch member is formed with second clutch teeth and is axially slidably mounted on the sleeve member for rotation therewith. A cam ring operatively coupled with an outer end of a stationary axle tube for the drive axle is rotatable on the sleeve member. A cam follower ring is axially slidably mounted on the sleeve member for rotation therewith. The cam follower ring is cooperable with the cam ring to be displaced toward the clutch member in response to rotation of the drive axle. A connecting member is engaged with the cam follower ring and the clutch member to permit relatively axial movement between the cam follower ring and the clutch member. The cam ring has at least two stages of cam rise face cooperable with the cam follower ring.
