Abstract
An output transfer group is disclosed for use with a mobile machine. The output transfer group may have a housing, and an input yoke extending from the housing and configured to receive an input torque. The output transfer group may also have a first output yoke extending from the housing and configured to provide a first output torque, a second output yoke extending from the housing and configured to provide a second output torque, and a plurality of gears disposed within the housing and connecting the input yoke to the first and second output yokes. The output transfer group may further have a disk stack operatively connected to two of the plurality of gears, and an actuator configured to selectively compress the disk stack to vary a split of the input torque between the first and second output yokes. The actuator may be maintained in contact with the disk stack during operation of the output transfer group.
