Description
The Powertrax No-Slip Traction System automatically distributes engine power to the
drive wheels for maximum traction output while allowing full differentiation for turning.
It eliminates the affliction of standard “open” differentials that direct all engine power
to a slipping wheel. It also provides superior traction output over “limited-slip” types of
traction adding differentials that still direct most of the engine power to a slipping wheel.
When most of the power is delivered to a slipping wheel, the dreaded results of becom-
ing stuck often occurs. For high performance applications that constantly strive to gain
horsepower, losing precious power to a slipping wheel is unacceptable. The Powertrax
No-Slip Traction System gets rid of unwanted tire spin and delivers optimum traction per-
formance.
The Powertrax No-Slip Traction System is ideal for rear axle installations in 2-wheel or
4-wheel drive vehicles, or in rear-wheel drive cars and vans. The Powertrax No-Slip Trac-
tion System is not recommended for installation in front wheel (only) drive vehicles. Front
axle installation in full-time 4-wheel drive vehicles is also discouraged. See the Applica-
tion section for more information.
The Powertrax No-Slip Traction System can be easily installed in your existing differential
case without requiring special tools or setup equipment. Only basic mechanical skills are
required. The Installation Guide accompanying this User Manual provides easy to follow,
step-by-step, graphic instructions to help make the installation straightforward. Be sure to
follow all instructions and heed all precautions. The ease of installation will vary depend-
ing on your differential type. The level of complexity is noted on the bottom of the box.
Review the Installation Guide before starting to become comfortable with the procedure.
