Tech Note 1: Not Included
TK4855 Kit does NOT include QU40159 or QU40105 Axle Shaft Seals. Order those separately or as part of QK4620 Axle Shaft Seal Kit.

Tech Note 2: Fits
This Kit is fits all 1994 to 1999 Dodge Ram 4x4 trucks with 8800 pound Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) and higher. This includes ALL 1994-1999 Ram 3500 4x4 models, ALL 1998-1999 Ram 2500 models, ALL 1994-1997 Ram 2500 with the Cummins Diesel, ALL 1994-1997 Ram 2500 with the gas V10 engine, and all 1994-1997 Ram 2500 with the gas V8 and a gross vehicle weight of 8800 pounds or higher. For the 1994 to 1997 model years, Dodge had a light duty, gas engine Ram 2500 that used a model 44 front drive axle. These light duty trucks typically had a GVW of 7700 pounds. This Kit will NOT work on those light duty trucks.

Tech Note 3: Master Kit
Need to do more than a simple rebearing job? See our TK4843 Master Kit which also includes QU40365 Pinion Depth Shims, QU40206 Differential Shims, QU40086 Ring Gear Bolts, QU40519 Diff Shaft Lock Pin, QU40159 Left Axle Shaft Seal, QU40105 Right Axle Shaft Seal, QU90008 Gear Marking Compound, S82194 Ultra Gray RTV Sealant, S24200 Threadlocker, and QT9404 Brush.

Tech Note 4: Use Proper Tools
Installing bearing cups using makeshift methods such as a hammer and punch usually results in nicks in the bearing cup and a gouged housing. For a damage free installation, use QT1805 Bearing Cup Installer to seat the inner bearing cup and QT1812 Bearing Cup Installer to seat the outer pinion bearing cup in your axle housing. Other popular differential tools you may be interested in include QT2005 Inner Pinion Bearing Installer, QT1098 Differential Master Bearings, QT1088 Step Plate, QT1158 Differential Bearing Installer, and QT1032 Differential Case Spreader.
