A sub-assembly for limiting differential motion to an eAxle with a differential for differentially outputting torque about an axis is provided. An actuator is configured to generate a rotational force about the axis. A cam mechanism is configured to convert the rotational force into a thrust force in a direction of the axis. A clutch assembly includes a first drum separably coupling with the differential, and a second drum separably coupling with a side gear of the differential, The clutch assembly is disposed adjacent to the cam mechanism so as to receive the thrust force to bring a friction clutch into action. A cover is configured to enclose the cam mechanism and the clutch assembly and couple with the eAxle to support any one of the cam mechanism and the clutch assembly against the thrust force.

A sub-assembly for limiting differential motion to an eAxle with a differential is provided with: an actuator configured to generate a rotational force about the axis; a cam mechanism configured to convert the rotational force into a thrust force in an axial direction; a clutch assembly adjacent to the cam mechanism, which includes a first drum drivingly engaged by a spline or keyway coupling with a differential case of the differential and a second drum drivingly engaged by a spline or keyway coupling with a side gear of the differential, and a friction clutch arranged between the first drum and the second drum; and a cover configured to enclose the cam mechanism and the clutch assembly and to combine with the eAxle to support any one of the cam mechanism and the clutch assembly against the thrust force or a thrust reaction force.
