Zusammenfassung:A universal axle mechanism is provided by an especially configured differential carrier housing which can be mounted to an axle housing with the axle housing orientated either upside down or right-side up and in each axle position lubricate the axle mechanism when the axle is driven in either a forward or rearward direction. The carrier housing includes several cored passageways within the carrier housing communicating with a common passageway leading to the axle differential. In each axle housing position, the common passageway is maintained out of direct communication with the sump. Lubricant is directed into the several passageways and to the common passageway by means of either a pick-up director member, the pinion drive gear or the ring gear; the lubricant following different flow paths into selective passageways leading to the differential dependent upon the driven direction of the axle and the axle mounting position.
