Auburn Locker for AMC 20 axle. The Auburn Locking differential provides the latest in traction technology and enables the driver to select the mode, which best suites the driving conditions. When "off" the Auburn locker functions as a limited slip differential. When the dash-mounted switch is in the "on" mode the differential becomes a locker, which is ideal for the drag strip or off-road terrain.
ECTED's Features and Benefits
The ECTED is designed to be controlled by a vehicle’s on-board control system. Listed below are some of the performance capabilities when integrated into such a system:
Variable Torque Transfer Capability – The ECTED’s torque transfer is electronically controlled and is infinitely variable from essentially an open differential to that of 100% torque transfer. This allows the transfer of torque to be modulated to give the vehicle maximum traction without compromising vehicle stability.
Automatic Engagement & Disengagement – The ECTED is "seamless" to the driver. When wheel slippage is sensed it instantly and automatically engages to the torque bias level required. Likewise, it automatically disengages immediately when torque transfer is not needed. Additionally, the friction-based clutches of the ECTED allow for smooth and quiet engagement and disengagement unlike "positive clutch" style differentials which are abrupt and noisy.
Programmable to Anticipate Wheel Slip – Since the clutch actuation is electronic, the ECTED does not have to rely on wheel slip to be activated as with viscous-type and hydraulic designs. When controlled by a system that monitors throttle position, the ECTED can be engaged when a rapid increase in throttle position is sensed, indicating a desire for maximum acceleration and traction. In this situation, the ECTED engages in anticipation of the need for maximum traction.
ABS & C-lock Compatible – Because the ECTED is electronically controlled and is capable of instantaneous disengagement, it can be deactivated at any point in time so as to not interfere with ABS systems. It is also designed to accept C-lock designed axle shafts.
Programmable to Meet Vehicle Performance Requirements – When connected to a vehicle’s on-board control system and monitoring conditions such as wheel speeds, steering position, throttle position, yaw, etc., the ECTED can be controlled to meet a variety of vehicle performance requirements.
