A torque transfer assembly for a tandem axle drive train, having a first synchronizer assembly including a first portion arranged to non-rotatably connect to a power input shaft arranged to receive torque from an engine, a second synchronizer assembly, an overdrive gear assembly engageable with the first synchronizer assembly, and an inter-axle differential gear (IAD) arranged to engage first and second power shafts, and engaged with the second synchronizer assembly. In a differential mode, a first torque path is formed from the power input shaft to a first axle through the first synchronizer, the power shafts, the IAD and second synchronizer, and a second torque path is formed from the power input shaft to a second axle through the first synchronizer, the power shafts, and the IAD, and, in overdrive mode, a third torque path is formed from the power input shaft to the first axle through the first synchronizer.
