Over years of daily commuting, highway cruising, or off-road trail riding, the internal rollers of these factory bearings naturally wear down. This wear introduces structural slack, which can manifest as a low-pitched howling or growling noise from the rear end that changes with vehicle speed. As the bearing degrades, it causes the axle shaft to run off-center, quickly destroying the outer oil seal. A failing seal allows highly pressurized differential gear oil to weep out onto your brake backing plates, ruining emergency brake shoes, contaminating brake pads, and risking catastrophic internal gear failure due to fluid starvation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThis original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement kit features a premium tapered roller bearing assembly forged from high-grade steel, heat-treated for maximum fatigue resistance, and precision-matched to factory tolerances. Sourcing a genuine Spicer kit ensures a perfect press-fit onto your factory axle shaft, eliminating the risk of loose tolerances or premature component failure. To provide a complete repair, this single-side service package bundles the primary wheel bearing with a premium multi-lip outer oil seal and a heavy-duty press-fit axle retaining ring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"10\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKit Contents (Components Service One Rear Wheel End):\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"11\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,0,0\"\u003e(1) Genuine Spicer Premium Tapered Rear Wheel Bearing Assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,1,0\"\u003e(1) Genuine Spicer Premium Multi-Lip Rear Axle Shaft Outer Oil Seal\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,2,0\"\u003e(1) Heavy-Duty Press-Fit Axle Shaft Bearing Retainer Ring\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eKit Highlights:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"13\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSingle-Side Maintenance Solution:\u003c\/b\u003e Supplies exactly enough factory-correct hardware to fully overhaul either the left (driver) or right (passenger) rear outer axle wheel end. \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"13,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"174\"\u003e(Note: If overhauling the entire rear axle assembly, two kits are required).\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,1,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eGenuine Spicer Forged Strength:\u003c\/b\u003e Precision-manufactured by the industry's benchmark drivetrain supplier to guarantee uncompromised structural integrity, exact metallurgical limits, and a long operational lifespan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,2,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,2,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eStops Differential Fluid Leaks:\u003c\/b\u003e Features an advanced multi-lip elastomeric seal designed to securely lock synthetic gear lubrication inside the axle tubes, protecting rear brake components from oil contamination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"13,3,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"13,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eRestores Quiet Operation:\u003c\/b\u003e Eliminates outer axle shaft slack to instantly clear up low-speed howling or growling noises caused by pitted or neglected wheel bearings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"14\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eVehicle \u0026amp; Axle Fitment:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAxle Profiles:\u003c\/b\u003e Semi-Floating Solid Rear \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"40\"\u003eDana 35 and Dana 44 (Dana 44A \/ Aluminum HD) Axles\u003c\/b\u003e. \u003ci data-path-to-node=\"15,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"92\"\u003eFits standard and Quadra-Drive rear axle configurations.
