Differential: Description and Operation
Differential

The differential consists of two differential pinions and two differential wheels, i.e. one for each drive shaft. The differential pinions and differential
wheels are bevel gears with spur teeth. The differential wheels are splined onto the universal joint drivers. The crown wheel, which is driven by the
gearbox output shaft, is bolted to the differential housing.

The speedometer drive gear is secured to the differential housing by means of a clip. Its rotation is transmitted by a worm gear to the speedometer cable.
