Identification between the two can be made by examining the hub: the protrusion of the hub through the center of the wheel denotes the preferred 10.5-inch full-floating rear axle. While the 9.5-inch rear end exhibits its own durability, it is generally considered less favorable for high-torque applications. The 9.5-inch C-clip rear differential ...
The Dana 80 Trac Lok is unique being it is a 4 pinion unit, unlike other Dana Trac Lok units with 2 pinions. This was the only rear axle available for the 2nd generation Dodge Ram 3500 trucks. [2] 35 Spline Dana 80 in a 2002 Dodge 2500HD Diesel
Dana differential case #706400 [3] (3.07-3.73) shows in Dana's parts catalog to be Dana 61-specific [citation needed]. The 706040x carrier can be purchased relatively inexpensively and used to install lower gears in a Dana 61 axle, such as when replacing a broken or damaged Dana 60 with a Dana 61 while retaining the factory gear ratio.
Factory center sections carry two (2) different bearing dimensions (3.0625 and 3.250 in or 77.7875 and 82.5500 mm). Factory axle shaft and differential spline count is 28 and 31, although aftermarket axles with 35 and 40 spline count are readily available from reputable manufacturers. Wide variety of axle bearing flanges were fabricated.
The Sterling 10.5 axle is an automotive axle manufactured by Ford Motor Company at the Sterling Axle Plant in Sterling Heights, MI. It was first used in model year 1985 Ford trucks. The axle was developed to replace the Dana 60 and Dana 70. The Sterling 10.5 axle is currently only made as a full floating axle.
The most apparent difference is a 12 bolt cover instead of the traditional 10. The super 8.8 also uses larger bearings,longer pinion with larger nut, and most significantly 34 spline axles or half shafts. First Look: Ford Performance Super 8.8-inch Ring And Pinion For S550
A relatively simple design of differential is used in rear-wheel drive vehicles, whereby a ring gear is driven by a pinion gear connected to the transmission. The functions of this design are to change the axis of rotation by 90 degrees (from the propshaft to the half-shafts) and provide a reduction in the gear ratio .
In hypoid gear design, the pinion and gear are practically always of opposite hand, and the spiral angle of the pinion is usually larger than that of the gear. The hypoid pinion is then larger in diameter than an equivalent bevel pinion. A hypoid gear incorporates some sliding and can be considered halfway between a straight-cut gear and a worm ...
