Straydog954 Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Hi all. Working with a crdp202 front rear. Can an air lock power divider be added to this rear by just swapping out the auto power divider or is there more to it ?

Joey Mack Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago I beleive so. The power divider housing is longer on the front end. The rear is the same and the splines in the cam drum should also be the same. The drive shaft will need to be shortened, but thats a small price for what you will gain with a locking power divider. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76191-power-divider-q/#findComment-586243 Share on other sites More sharing options...
terry Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago (edited) Better get a manual, i think the older series of front rears on a standard power divider to change to air operated i think the outer cam on power divider had splines that engaged front and rear end, and that entails taking front rear apart. terry Edited 9 hours ago by terry Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76191-power-divider-q/#findComment-586251 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted 15 hours ago Share Posted 15 hours ago The outer cam is different. It has clutching teeth for the sliding clutch which is in its own housing mounted on the front of the cam housing.. making it longer on the front end. I should go get my book and post pictures, but I cant right now. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76191-power-divider-q/#findComment-586252 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straydog954 Posted 12 hours ago Author Share Posted 12 hours ago I was going to try and find an air locker in a salvage yard but may have to buy the whole rear and swap it that way Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76191-power-divider-q/#findComment-586255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago Take the side cover off and check the bevel gear condition, and be sure to look at the ratio stamped in the housing.

Straydog954 Posted 11 hours ago Author Share Posted 11 hours ago Will do. I have the auto power divider on my other truck and it’s worthless sometimes and other times I have actually seen all tires spinning It’s hit or miss whether or not your getting unstuck 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/76191-power-divider-q/#findComment-586258 Share on other sites More sharing options...
