Vehicular torque limiter and method for limiting torque

A vehicular torque limiter comprising:

• a first shaft disposed facing a vehicle while said torque limiter is installed thereto, and exposed to an environment while said torque limiter is not installed to said vehicle, said first shaft being hollowed from side to side for comprising female connecting means for being complementary to male connecting means of an end of an axle-shaft of said vehicle, said end of the axle-shaft being exposed to the environment once removing a drive member of a standard wheel of the vehicle, thereby said female connecting means of said first shaft allow inserting the end of the axle-shaft thereinto;
• a second shaft comprising an area facing said vehicle while said torque limiter is installed thereto, and exposed to the environment while said torque limiter is not installed to said vehicle, said exposed area being connectable to a hub assembly of said wheel of said vehicle by bolts of said wheel which are accessible;
• torque limiting elements, for limiting torque between said first and second shafts, wherein said torque limiter is an independent product;
• and
• a cover, for packaging said first shaft and for covering said end of said axle-shaft of said vehicle, thereby said cover does not allow said axle-shaft of said vehicle to cross said cover from side to side,
• thereby said drive member of said wheel which directly connects said axle-shaft to said hub assembly, is replaceable with said torque limiter,
• thereby providing a universal, installable torque limiter designed for vehicles.
