Applications

Tech Note 1: Shims and Slingers
This Kit fits Dana 60 and Dana 61 axles that axles used shims between the inner Pinion Bearing and the Pinion Head to set the pinion rotating preload. There may or may not have been a Slinger between the bearing and pinion head and/or a baffle under the cup. Pinion Shim Kits may fit several applications, so you may find you have a kit with an inner Slinger or baffle that differs from original. If present, these parts are part of the pinion height shim pack. As a rule, unless otherwise instructed, only use an inner baffle or Slinger if your axle was originally built with the exactly the same type of part. The only exception would be when the gear or shim manufacturer specifically instructs you to use a different combination than original equipment.

Tech Note 2: Service Procedures
Rebearing service procedures are covered in my TM4400 Pinion and Differential Bearing Service on Dana-Spicer Monobeam Axles.
