Differential "EATON" (interwheel) with electric blocking UAZ for standard axle shafts / CV joints

Applicability and installation

Installed on UAZ 31519 Hunter (Hunter), UAZ 3163 Patriot (Patriot), UAZ 2363 Pickup (Pickup), UAZ Cargo, UAZ Profi, UAZ 452, 2206 and their modifications with Spicer bridges, installation on UAZ 469, 452 (Bukhanka) is possible , with Timken / Hybrid bridges

Eaton Electrical Lockout Warranty 6 months from date of installation. We strongly recommend that you install in a certified car service, in order to avoid incorrect connection of the lock

Attention! Include on standing car or at speeds up to three miles per hour with minimal slip. Turning on on more speed may damage the locking mechanism with subsequent failure to warranty repair... We deny warranty if the locking sleeve or pins are damaged. After passing a difficult section, the blocking must be turned off. It is not recommended to disable the blocking under load, for example in a corner. When the lock is loaded, it may not turn off immediately, as a result - the differential will be locked when it is not needed.
In cold weather, the viscosity of the oil increases, which leads to the spontaneous activation of the lock. We recommend using synthetic oil in the cold season.

A distinctive feature of differentials with electric locking is ease of installation, ease of connection and simplicity of the device itself. Air-lock differentials and hydraulic-lock differentials require complex installation. They include many components, which significantly reduces the reliability of the unit, and poor-quality installation leads to damage to the wiring and failure of the entire system as a whole. When installing differentials with electric locking, there are no unnecessary installation diagrams where you can make a mistake: you do not need compressors, cylinders to turn on pneumatic and hydraulic drives. Electrical interlocking, when the control button is pressed, is carried out by an electromagnet and the electrical circuit activates the locking mechanism.

The EATON differential locking solenoid mechanism is activated, completely locking the axle, simply by pressing a button.
When the axle is completely locked, all available torque is distributed to both wheels. Due to the wheel having the greatest grip on the road, the car is able to continue driving.

The differential with full, 100% locking has been tested on millions of off-road vehicles around the world.
Designed in accordance with Russian climatic and road conditions operation, differential "EATON":

  • allows you to completely block the axle shafts at the request of the driver
  • can be controlled with a manual switch or electronic unit management
  • four-satellite design for maximum strength
  • does not require maintenance, does not require special lubricants or additives
  • compatible for use on front or rear axles
  • in off mode functions as an open differential

Switching the electrical interlock on and off.

To activate the lock, press and hold the button until the rear axle differential lock indicator in the instrument cluster turns on. For UAZ Patriot and UAZ Pickup (with transfer case "Dymos"), first switch the RK to 4L operating mode, on UAZ Cargo (with RC UAZ) - to 4x4 mode. After turning on the blocking, automatic shutdown ABS, as a result of which the ABS malfunction indicator lights up, the LCD display of the instrument cluster displays text messages: "Electronic cross-axle differential lock disabled", "Hill start assist disabled", " Anti-lock braking system disabled. "Manual disabling of the lock is possible at any time by pressing and holding the button again until the rear axle differential lock indicator goes off.

Car differential transfers torque from the gearbox to the wheels, at which the speed of rotation of the wheels may differ.

If a free differential is installed on the car, then when one wheel is slipping, torque is transmitted to the other, which is insufficient for movement. Therefore, on difficult sections of the road it is not easy to cope with control. AND here lock comes in handy... The blockage was caused by the need to increase the torque on the wheel with the best grip.

The SUV has the ability to drive to all wheels due to the presence of an interaxle and two interwheel differentials.


Not available on UAZ vehicles center differential and inclusion all-wheel drive it is impossible without a lock installed on it. Because of this, if the UAZ got, for example, into the mud on the left side, it will not be able to get out of the trap, since the right wheels of both bridges will remain motionless, and the left will "knead the dirt".

Blocking the bridge will significantly increase the cross-country ability of the UAZ, and you can block the front one, rear axles or both.

1. What is a forced differential lock

The car differential has a planetary structure, consisting of several worm gears of two types:

Driven (semi-axial); Leading (satellites).

Satellites are most often located parallel to the semi-axes (for example, Quaife, Torsen T-2), but there are differentials with a perpendicular arrangement (for example, Torsen T-1).

Differential lock can be forced (manual) and automatic (self-locking differential).

Depending on the degree of blocking, the following types are distinguished:

Full - the parts of the differential are connected rigidly and the transmission of torque is carried out to the wheel, which better grip with the road.

Partial - the transmitted force among the differential parts is limited and the torque is increased at the wheel with the best traction.

The whole blocking process goes something like this:

The differential housing is connected to one axle shaft.

The movement of the satellites is limited.

A forced differential lock provides 100% locking of the wheels on one axle.


Such blocking is necessary in order to ensure the vehicle's passage through difficult-to-pass areas. The forced locking is actuated by means of a cam clutch capable of combining the differential housing and the axle shaft.

Until the forced lock is turned on, the differential works normally, and when it is turned on, the differential ensures an even distribution of torque on the axle shaft.

Forced locks on UAZ are of the following types:

Hydraulic (controlled by hydraulic system and brake fluid).

Mechanical (controlled by a cable mechanism).

Pneumatic (controlled by compressed air).

Electric (driven by an electric motor).

To estimate the torque free wheel differential lock factor is used. It is calculated as the ratio of the lagging wheel torque to the running wheel torque. For a symmetric differential, this coefficient is equal to one. By using blocking, it can be increased. The higher the blocking factor, the better passability car. But it is impossible to increase it more than to a value of 5, as this will provoke a breakdown of the transmission.

2. What are the options for blocking diff for UAZ, their overview, cost

The UAZ car is one of the most popular vehicles among hunters, mushroom pickers, berry pickers and simply extreme lovers. It helps drivers out on rough roads and in adverse conditions. But, if you need to increase its cross-country ability, you cannot do without blocking.


You can lock the differential on the UAZ in a hard way (forced locking) or using limited slip differentials (self-locking differentials). The choice of locks in our time is very extensive. Each UAZ driver will be able to choose a suitable lock for himself, focusing on the price, principle of operation or quality.

Consider several options for blocking UAZ.

1. Screw locking from Val-Racing with preload.

The clutch of such a lock connects the axle shafts with a given preload value. With an increase in the effort on the transmission (in severe conditions), the axle shafts rotate and the device works like a conventional screw lock.

The cost of such a lock is about $ 280.

2. Forced blocking from Simbat.

This blocking has an electric drive and is turned on by pressing a button at a speed of up to 5 km / h, and when a speed of 30 km / h is reached, it is automatically turned off. A forced lock from Simbat will cost around $ 680.

3. Krasikov's automatic differential.


This differential has a planetary structure, in which ball chains are used as satellites. Under normal conditions, these chains move freely along the channels and equally distribute the torque between the wheels. But under conditions of different wheel resistance, the chains are locked and the differential is locked. Differential Krasikov reacts not to the difference in wheel speeds, but to the difference in the load on the driving wheels and engine power.

The cost of the Krasikov automatic differential is around $ 360, and the sports version is $ 400.

4. Forced pneumatic lock "Sprut".

This blocking gives the driver complete control over the blocking process. It does not use differentiation, so including such a lock, it will definitely work.

The price of forced blocking "Sprut" is 320 US dollars.

5. Blocking the "block" IZH-Techno.


The "block" blocking is designed simply and reliably. It consists of two semi-axial and two spacer couplings, springs, washers and pins. In difficult operating conditions, the "block" shows a really 100% blocking, but, like a hard blocking, it can fail and break the transmission. The price for blocking a block is relatively low and amounts to about 200 US dollars.

6. Forced blocking Block-Sport.

Lock Block-Sport is different good quality and the strengthening of all components. It is made of skillfully crafted and sturdy metal. To enable, use cable drive with electronic inclusion.


Blocking cost Block-Sport high and depends on the kit. For example, enhanced blocking front axle will cost about $ 1150. And the cost complete set blocking two bridges will be around US $ 3,000.

3. Advantages and disadvantages of installation

Forced locks.

Advantages of forced blocking:

If it is disabled, then the differential works as a standard one (the working life is the same as that of the original differential).

Blocks 100 percent (ensures efficient wheel operation when turned on).

Increases cross-country ability on difficult sections of the track.

Full control of the locking by the driver.

Disadvantages of forced blocking:

It is difficult and problematic to install on a car.

Increases the load on the transmission (without the driver's skills, the transmission will fail).

Impairs vehicle handling if misused.

High cost (more expensive than self-blocking).

Self-locking differentials.

Self-locking differentials advantages:

Self-locking differentials are easy to install.

The cost is noticeably lower than that of forced blocking.

They work automatically and do not need additional driver actions.

Low probability of axle shaft breakage if the driver does not have enough experience.

Disadvantages of self-locking differentials:

Affect vehicle handling (especially when cornering). They do not provide the possibility of complete blocking (there is no possibility of transmitting torque to only one wheel).

4. Owner reviews

Each UAZ car owner has his own opinion on the question: "Which differential lock is better?"


Despite its high cost and detrimental effect on the vehicle's transmission, forced locks are much more popular among drivers than automatic ones.

On automotive forums and thematic sites, you can find many reviews about different options for locking the differential on the UAZ. Let's consider some of them.

Screw blocking from Val-Racing with preload, like the manufacturing company itself, is praised on the Internet more often than it is named for a product.

Forced blocking from Simbat, according to user reviews, is a rather controversial product. There are many negative reviews about this blocking. Someone writes that during operation the clutch burst into three parts. From another review, it became clear that problems can arise if you drive a car in a swing.

There are a lot of positive and negative reviews about the Krasikov automatic differential. Someone writes that UAZ with such a differential is able to overtake even a tractor in a swamp... And someone responds extremely negatively (a large number of marriage, inadequate work). But the Krasikov differential really works, albeit for a short time.

About Forced Pneumatic Interlock "Octopus" there are mostly positive comments. Drivers have only complaints about the quality of the seal cuff (requires frequent replacement).

IZH-Techno blocking block has earned the favor of users due to its affordable cost and simplicity... The negative is directed towards the operation of such a blockage on asphalt - it provokes rapid tire wear and negatively affects the transmission (but forced locks are not intended for driving on asphalt).

Forced blocking of Block-Sport can be found in to a greater extent, positive feedback from the owners due to its quality and durability. Among the negative opinions, the majority cite the cost of this blocking and the long duration of the order (it takes up to six months to wait for delivery)

5. Tips for operating forced locking on UAZ vehicles

A few tips for UAZ owners using a forced differential lock:

1. Forced locking should be used only in difficult and extreme road conditions (mud, off-road, hilly terrain).

2.With the blocking on, do not move at a speed exceeding 10 km / h. 3. The blocking must be disabled after overcoming the difficult part of the path.

4. Do not engage the lock when driving on a surface with a high coefficient of adhesion (asphalt).

5. The use of forced locking with wheels of non-standard diameter often leads to failure of the transmission.
