Applications

Tech Note 1: Shims
Until the late 1980's all Dana-Spicer Model 60 and 70 series axles used shims between the Outer Pinion Bearing and a shoulder on the Pinion Stem to set the pinion rotating preload. Many Model 60 axles built since that time use QU40356 collapsible spacer (crush sleeve) to set rotating preload. Model 70 axles still use shims.

Tech Note 2:Always Replace
Always replace the cup and cone at the same time.

Tech Note 3: Matching Parts
The matching Bearing Cup is QU50400. For an original equipment Cup and Cone Set, see QU40182.
