ArvinMeritor's Commercial Vehicle Systems business group is providing a new, multimedia information kit. The kit has operation instructions for an optional Driver Controlled Differential Lock (DCDL) and the standard Inter-Axle Differential (IAD) lock for Meritor drive axles. Information is designed to inform heavy-duty truck operators and technicians of benefits and operating procedures of the devices, as well as provide information about an optional pump and filter system.

A DCDL provides maximum vehicle traction and control on unfavorable road or highway surfaces. An IAD is a driver-controlled, air-actuated traction device that allows for speed differences between the forward and rear tandem axles, while providing equal pulling power from each axle of the tandem.
