Abstract
An overrunning clutch (ORC) differential is provided that includes a locking mechanism that is configured to lock rotation of a clutch cam housing to a roller cage to retain a centering of each roller in an associated cam roller feature to prevent torque from being communicated between the clutch cam housing and first and second hubs when the locking mechanism is activated.
