Applications

Tech Note 1: Matching Driver Handles
Made for QUAD 4x4/Torque King Bearing and Seal installers with 5/8" center hole. Use 8" for general purpose use, or 14" for deep seated bearing cups such as inner pinion and transmission case. Available in 1" diameter for general purpose use (QT1100 8", QT1101 14" and 1-1/4" diameter for professional use (QT1116 8", QT1119 14").

Tech Note 2: Bearing Removal Tools
Your old spindle bearings can be removed with a QT1198 Spindle Bearing Remover, a blind hole bearing puller or a large punch.

Tech Note 3: Bearing Lubrication
Lubricate your new QK4734 bearings with a quality NLGI #2 Wheel Bearing Grease. Refer to our LG100 Wheel bearing grease Selector for available greases.

Tech Note 4: Spindle Bearing Depth
Early production Dana 30 and Dana 44 open knuckle axles that used these bearings (generally prior to 1975) did not use QU40056 Small Spindle V-Seal between the spindle bearing and axle shaft thrust washer. Spindles from these early axles are not bored deep enough to install both a spindle bearing and a seal. Circa 1975 and later axles do have deeper spindle bearing bores. For these axles, use QT1134 Spindle Bearing Installer to seat your new QK4734 Spindle Bearings to the correct depth below the spindle face to permit the installation of QU40056 Small spindle V-Seal.

Tech Note 5: Seals and Thrust Washers
Over the years, several seal and thrust washer configurations were used to protect this bearing. For mid 1970's and later, all applications will use either QU40056 Small V-Seal or QU40556 Unitized Seal/Thrust Washer. QK4734 Spindle Bearings must be installed deep enough that the thrust washer will seat against the spindle face. For ALL applications, care must be taken not to seat the bearing too deep as it will bind if pressed beyond the machined bore.
