A differential for a part-time 4-wheel drive vehicle. The differential includes a differential assembly disposed on a front axle shaft to allow front wheels to turn at different speeds when the vehicle is in a turn, an outer case for receiving power from a power transfer case via a front propeller shaft, the outer case being disposed around the front axle shaft while enclosing the differential assembly, and a clutch lever assembly disposed between the outer case and the differential assembly to selectively couple the outer case to the differential assembly, the clutch lever assembly being mounted on the outer case so as to operate in a coupling direction to the differential assembly by centrifugal force generated when the outer case is rotated by power transmitted from the power transfer case.
