a) Final drive unit -changes the drive from the propeller shaft to that of half shafts through 90
Allows easier cornering of the vehicle by allowing the inner wheel to move at a reduced speed while the outer wheel is speeded.
It increases the torque output of half shafts by reducing the speed of the propeller shaft by use of a small pinion to drive the larger crown wheel.

b) Clutch -connects and disconnects the drive between the engine and the gear box. – it enables the drive to be taken up gradually and smoothly
-it provides the vehicle with a temporary neutral.
