Spicer Specialty Axles for On_Off and Off-Highway Specialty Applications: Condensed Specifications - Manual (Page 6)

Transfer case configurations usually mean
awkward, less efficient routing. The
Spicer
® all-wheel drive system changes all
that. Our distinctive transfer gearing
design eliminates the need for the
conventional transfer case.
Depending on the vehicle and compo-
nents involved, the initial cost differential
between Spicer and other all-wheel
drive systems can be substantial. Our
compact design provides even more sav-
ings by eliminating special bracketry and
other mounting components.
Weight savings and considerably less
required lube are also features of the Dana
Spicer design. Transfer gearing in the
power divider weighs significantly less
than a transfer case, gearshift and other
related componentry. The result: increased
payload capacity and improved fuel
efficiency.
Unique Spicer

transfer gearing delivers all-wheel
drive performance with standard axle efficiency.
Easy operation.
The Spicer all-wheel drive system is
as easy to operate as any standard rear
drive axle. A dash-mounted valve controls
front steer-drive axle engagement. In most
applications, a flip to the left puts the vehi-
cle in rear axle drive. Just flip it to the
right and the vehicle is in all-wheel drive
mode. That’s it. No gear shift. No need to
stop the vehicle. The system shifts while
the truck is on the go.

Spicer drive axles offer three
gearing combinations.
• Single reduction for conventional
operation.
• Double reduction for that extra
tough terrain.
• Dual range for versatility and
flexibility, including deep reduc-
tion in low range for maximum
power and traction, and high
range for fuel-efficient and cost-
effective cruising speeds.
