Applications
Tech Note 1: Premium Material
The original paper gasket for these front axle applications was made with vegetable fiber which gets brittle and shrinks with age. Our new gasket does not suffer from those problems, plus is much more durable, can take higher clamp pressures, and it is resistant to torque shear.
Tech Note 2: Inside Diameter
The inside diameter of TK40573 Gasket is made to fit over the male hub pilot found on solid drive flanges and some lockout hubs such as the Warn M197 series. It will also work fine with unpiloted aftermarket lockout hubs.
Tech Note 3: Spicer Plastic Dial Hubs
If you have the big factory Spicer Plastic Dial Hubs on your Ford or GM 4x4, use TK40573 between the Chrome Outer Cap (QU40546UAS) and Hub Body (QU40547). Order QU40395 Metal Gasket to place between the Hub Body (QU40547) and Wheel Hub.
Tech Note 4: Gasket Use
Spicer external mount factory lock-out hubs were designed for use with gaskets of specific thicknesses. Do not use RTV or other sealants in lieu of gaskets!

Front hub gasket
The gasket arrived on time and fit perfectly despite the fact that my son had to take the hub back off and tore the gasket in the process... certainly not the fault of the gasket. I will order another one from Torque King and instruct my son to be more careful in the future!

Basic gasket for Dana and Spicer 6 bolt hubs. I've changed lots of these over the past 45 years. Ford and Dodge use this same gasket. Ford started using these as early as 1965. If you're not pressed for time, buy a sheet of gasket paper at most auto parts stores and just make your own. Much less expensive.
