Rear Differential Side Gear βš™οΈ

This precision side gear lives inside the final drive and locks onto the axle shaft via splines. Its job is to pass torque from the carrier and spider gears to the wheel, keeping turns smooth and traction steady on- and off-road ️.

Why you need it

Hard use, oversized tires, and old gear oil wear the teeth and splines. Replacing a tired gear restores correct clearances, quiet operation, and reliable power delivery. Built from case-hardened steel, the unit holds alignment under heavy load.

How it works βœ…

The gear meshes with the pinion (spider) gears and rotates on thrust surfaces inside the carrier. Controlled clearance and constant oil film prevent chatter. The splined hub grips the axle shaft so torque flows cleanly to the wheel.

What happens if it fails ⚠️

Expect click or clunk in turns, vibration on take-off, metal flakes in oil, wheel hop, or loss of drive to one side. Severe damage can chip the ring and pinion, seize the cross pin, and leave the vehicle immobile.

Pro tips from the bay ️

Match tooth profile and spline count, inspect spiders and cross shaft, renew thrust washers, verify side gear clearance and carrier backlash, and refill with fresh GL‑5 gear oil. Direct-fit, OE-ref: 38423‑06J24.
