Front Drive System (Differential)


The Hilliard Front Drive System is an electro-mechanically activated bidirectional overrunning clutch. When 12 volts of power are sent via the 4WD switch, the unit is activated to engage both front wheels instantaneously, whenever the rear wheels lose traction. The clutch also releases or overruns automatically the instant the rear wheels regain traction. 
Because torque is transmitted to both front wheels, it is a “true” 4WD. The overrunning characteristics of this system allow for an on-demand 4WD engagement and steering ease. Typical applications for Hilliard’s front differential include, ATV’s UTV’s, side by sides and compact tractors. 

Applications

ATV/UTV - Side By Side

Motion Control Type: On Demand/On the Fly 4 WD Differential
