PURPOSE:To prevent the interference with a projecting article on a road surface by connecting the first and the second shafts of a propulsion shaft by an inter mediate shaft and increasing the ground clearance of a selecting clutch by installing the selecting clutch onto the intermediate shaft. CONSTITUTION:A propulsion shaft S consists of the first shaft 4 connected with the output shaft 2 of a transfer T, the second shaft 5 connected with the input shaft 3 of a rear part differential device, and an intermediate shaft 6 connected between the both shafts 4 and 5 through joints J3 and J4. The intermediate shaft 6 is divided into the front and rear half shafts 6a and 6b, and a power transmission cut-off device 1 is installed. The selecting clutch 8 of the power transmission cut-off device 1 has a clutch inner 35 serration- connected with the front half shaft 6a. Since, with such constitution, the device 1 is arranged onto the floor plate Ba of a chassis, and the ground clearance of the selecting clutch 8 is increased, the interference with a projecting article on a road surface can be avoided.
