Some how they took the same technology in and which applies automatic transmission clutch packs, then turned it into brakes!

[@ninefingerdeathgrip]

Also motorcycle chutches, but then again, clutch and brake are practically same thing, just operated differently.

[@epistte]

Those brakes are the same as a multi plate clutch. Many aircraft brakes are the same way.

[@2averagenoobs108]

whaaaaatttt that's crazy.. Each wheel has it's own diff and transmission brake pretty much lmfao

[@reecewharf]

Yeah the idea is if you have a diff in the wheels then you can reduce the size of the axle diff which gets you more ground clearance

[@mikeal5061]

@@reecewharf The diff would still be in the center, thats just the final drive in the wheelhub. Keeps the required axle size lower, lighter and therefore less rotating mass

[@numberpirate]

Yeah, that is why these things are closer to tanks than cars/trucks.

[@Npc5150]

Just the final drive gear. I wonder if there's a slipping diff between the final drives.

[@byron56100]

A word of advice. When applying flange sealant around bolt holes it needs to be applied around the inside of the hole. This in turn makes sure no leaks are created at bolt shaft.
