1. A torque transferring assembly comprising:

  • an axle;

    a first output;

    a second output; and

    a spider located in between the first output and the second output, the spider is adapted to support a plurality of torque transferring elements such that each of the torque transferring elements are in communication with one or both of the first output and the second output;

    wherein the torque transferring assembly is adapted to distribute a torque to both the first output and the second output so that both outputs rotate until a load or resistance acting on the first output becomes higher than a load or resistance acting on the second output, the torque transferring assembly is then adapted to distribute the torque to the second output so that the second output continues to rotate while the first output slows or ceases to rotate; and

    wherein the first output is adapted to rotate independently of the axle.
