The Chelsea 890CDFJW-B3CS or 890CDFJWB3CS is a hydraulic PowerShift PTO assembly from the 890 Series, engineered specifically for Allison 3000 MD and 4000 HD Series transmissions. It uses a 10-bolt mounting configuration and features an SAE C ("XS") output shaft with Wet Spline technology to reduce wear on the PTO and pump shaft under demanding duty cycles. The 890 Series design moves the pump mounting flange to the rear of the transmission on a one-piece main shaft, eliminating input splines between the PTO and output extension for improved reliability. Continuous-duty torque reaches 670 lb-ft, with intermittent torque rated at 501+ lb-ft. Shaft power output is 64 HP at 500 RPM and 128 HP at 1,000 RPM. Common applications include aerial trucks, fire and rescue vehicles, refuse trucks, and truck cranes. A genuine Chelsea part from Pro Gear and Transmission. Call us to confirm proper fit for your specific transmission configuration.

The Chelsea 890 Series is a single-unit design that mounts like a standard side-mounted PTO while adding a rear bracket for transmission support. The clutch is positioned at the rear of the PTO housing, allowing the gear section to sit tightly against the transmission for improved clearance between the unit and the frame rail. The 890 Series can be configured for transmissions with or without a cooler or retarder. Typical markets include aerial, fire and rescue, defense, on-highway, and other mobile applications. Part number 890CDFJW-B3CS is also referenced as SP890CDFJW-B3CS in some catalog systems.
