Abstract
A vehicle preferably having a wheel set convertible between driven and non-driven mode via clutch ring engagement/disengagement of the wheel hub and the axle. The clutch ring or other coupling component is readily replaceable in the field through manual removal of a removable cap enclosing said clutch ring or other coupling component, said coupling component exposed to the wheel exterior upon removal of the cap. The clutch ring or coupling component is designed to be the weakest link and to thereby fail upon excessive torque loading of the drive line before other drive line components fail and thereby enable in-field repair.
