The Chelsea 897XDFJW-M5XS or 897XDFJWM5XS is a constant-engagement power take-off from the Chelsea 897 Series, engineered specifically for Allison 3000 and 4000 Series transmissions. The 897 Series positions the pump mounting flange at the rear of the transmission, giving improved pump clearance compared to a conventional side-mount design. A 10-bolt mounting pattern and SAE C output flange and shaft are standard across the series. The wet spline output extends PTO and pump shaft life under demanding duty cycles. Typical applications include aerial trucks, fire and rescue units, refuse trucks, and truck cranes. Call us to confirm proper fit for your specific Allison transmission configuration.

Additional Information
The Chelsea 897 Series is a single-unit PTO, not a PTO with a separate extension. The main shaft is a one-piece design, eliminating input splines between the PTO body and the output extension. The housing and gear section tuck tightly against the transmission for clearance, while an additional rear bracket provides supplemental support. The 897 Series can be ordered for transmissions equipped with or without a cooler, a retarder, or both. This part is also referenced as SP897XDFJW-M5XS.
