A differential assembly provided with a power distribution unit includes a first housing, an output shaft, a shaft, and a torque limiter. The first housing defines a biasing member bore and a brake bore. The output shaft extends at least partially through the first housing. The shaft is disposed about the output shaft and extends between a first shaft end that is connected to a differential unit and a second shaft end. The torque limiter is disposed within the first housing and is arranged to selectively inhibit rotation of at least one of the output shaft and the shaft.
