Description
The Chelsea 281GCFJP-K5RK or 281GCFJPK5RK is a hydraulically shifted PowerShift PTO assembly from Chelsea’s 281 Series, designed for 10-bolt automatic transmissions including Allison applications. The 281 Series is an evolution of the 280 Series, featuring a ductile iron bearing cap rated 117% stronger than gray iron, an o-ring sealing configuration between the housing and bearing cap for improved clamp load, and an 80% thicker clutch pack steel disc for reduced tooth wear. Nine speed ratios span low and high ranges. A wet spline lubrication option extends shaft life by 7 to 10 times. Cross-referenced as 5P1491 and 5P1495. Call us to confirm proper fit for your transmission and application.
