An axle shaft disconnect clutch includes a housing, an axle shaft, a stub shaft, a dog clutch and an inner race. The axle shaft includes a first outer spline and the stub shaft includes a second outer spline. The dog clutch has an inner spline engaged with the second outer spline and the inner race is rotationally fixed and axially displaceable relative to the housing to axially displace the dog clutch and engage or disengage the inner spline with the first outer spline. In some example embodiments, the axle shaft disconnect clutch has a bushing pad fixed to the inner race. The inner race is arranged to push the dog clutch towards the first outer spline to engage the dog clutch, and the inner race is arranged to pull the bushing pad to pull the dog clutch away from the first outer spline to disengage the dog clutch.
