Over the years, Dana Spicer has primarily used Timken bearings when building their axles. For long life and dimensional consistency, Timken bearings are unmatched by any other brand of bearing I have used rebuilding axles over the past 30+ years in the business. When you are a shade tree mechanic dealing with a diff and pinion rebearing job without all the fancy gauging tools we have, you always want your new bearings to be the same overall thickness as the original bearings were when the axle was built so your pinion depth, pinion preload and backlash are within the tolerance limits when you are done with the job. Timken bearings will almost always deliver that type of accuracy, plus the steel quality and surface finish is the world's best.
All 1980-2005 Ford Dana 50 front axles have the same differential and pinion bearings. The pinion seals and method to set pinion preload vary by year. We offer two Kits with Timken Bearings. TK4885 includes JUST the diff and pinion bearings/cups, you can then individually order the exact extra original equipment parts you need for your specific axle. QU50581 is a "universal" Kit for all Dana 50 axles that has the same premium Timken bearings as TK4885 plus aftermarket small parts and 2 pinion seals.
