The Chelsea 281 Series Power Take-Off, part number 281GTFJP-B8RK or 281GTFJPB8RK, is a hydraulically shifted hot-shift PTO engineered for automatic transmissions with a 10-bolt aperture, including Allison and Caterpillar transmissions. It mounts directly to the transmission and delivers continuous-duty operation across nine speed ratios, covering both low and high speed ranges. The ductile iron bearing cap is 117% stronger than gray iron, and clutch pack steel discs are 80% thicker than the predecessor 280 Series to resist premature tooth wear. An O-ring sealing configuration between the housing and bearing cap improves clamp load and reduces vibrational effects. Rotatable cast-iron flanges reduce interference fit issues, and a positive stop on driveline outputs eliminates oil seal damage from coupling. A genuine Chelsea part, sold by Pro Gear and Transmission. Call us to confirm proper fit for your application.

Additional Information

Chelsea PTO 281 Series model break down
The Chelsea 281 Series is an evolution of the proven 280 Series PTO platform, designed for demanding applications including fire and rescue, truck cranes, pumper-cleaner units, and refuse trucks. The 281 Series incorporates structural and sealing upgrades specifically aimed at handling increased vibrational loads from modern engine designs. The O-ring configuration between the housing and bearing cap was redesigned to improve clamp load retention under sustained operation. SmartStart reduces shock load at engagement for compatible applications, and Electronic Overspeed Control (EOC) provides a layer of protection for driven hydraulic equipment.
