Kevin,

They started using this system on the 4x4 Rangers earlier this year. Works great. A lot less parts, a lot less headaches. No wires, no hubs sticking out, no one-wheel engaging only, etc. It works the exact same way, but it's in the front gearcase housing. If you look at an exploded diagram of the front gearcase, the internals look just look the hubs on the Polaris machines currently out. I like the new design a lot.

 

Sounds good to me. Any time you can reduce the number of parts to do the same task, this is a good thing.
