Additionally, for Wrangler owners with high-horsepower GM LS engines, the 14-bolt can handle the engines' increased stress. [8] Many Wrangler owners will have up to two inches removed from the bottom of the 10.5" 14-bolt differential housing to maximize ground clearance. [9] The popularity of GM trucks and vans made 10.5" 14-bolt axles a common ...
The majority of the Dana 70s are rear axles, however Dana 70 front axles do exist. Both front and rear axle variations were first offered in 1957. The Dana 70 is generally regarded to have more strength than a Dana 60 but not as much as a Dana 80. Gross axle weight ratings are often lowered by the vehicle manufacturer for safety and tire reasons.
6500 lbs (full float, rear axle) 5500 lbs (semi float) GAWR is vehicle axle weight plus rated payload capacity; Ring gear diameter: 9 3 ⁄ 4 " Axle shaft diameter 1.41” Front (32 spline) 1.46” Rear (32 spline) 1.50” Front (35 spline) 1.50” Rear (35 spline) Inner axle shaft splines: 16, 23, 30, 32, 33 or 35
It can be identified by its straight axle tubes, 10 bolt asymmetrical cover, and a "80" cast into the housing. Dana 80's are made as full floating, rear axles only and are a step up in overall strength compared to the Dana 70. 1988 Ford was the first company to use the Dana 80.
The AAM 9.25 solid axle was developed for 3rd generation Dodge Rams (3/4 and 1 Ton). The axle uses a modified Saginaw 9.5 differential, ring and pinion. The differential housing covers are identical except for one bolt hole at the 3 o’clock position. Model year 2010 and later Rams use larger universal joints than the 2003-2009 models. [1]
The Dana 44 rear axle first saw use in the 1940s and is still in use today. The Dana 44 has a GAWR up to 3,500 lb (1,600 kg) and is a semi-floating type, having one bearing on the end of the axle shaft which carries the weight of the vehicle on the axle and also allows axle rotation.
The 2.2l S10/Sonoma had the starter located in the same position as front wheel drive cars. A rear wheel drive bellhousing is displayed at right, and the integrated front wheel drive bellhousing is displayed at the lower right (in this case, as a part of the GM 6T70 Transmission). GM 60-Degree 2.8/3.1/3.4/3.5/3.9 L V6 (also used by AMC) Buick ...
The farther back the engine, the greater the bias. Typical weight bias for an FF (front engine, front-wheel-drive) is 65/35 front/rear; for FR, 55/45; for MR, 45/55; for RR, 35/65. A static rear weight requires less forward brake bias, as load is more evenly distributed among all four wheels under braking. Similarly, a rear weight bias means ...
