Application
This gasket fits vehicles equipped with Dana 25 front axle (MB, GPW, CJ-2A, CJ-3A, CJ-3B, M38, M38A1), Dana 27 rear axle (MB, GPW) or Dana 30 front axle (CJ-2A, CJ-3A, CJ-3B, M38A1). Verify the differential type on your vehicle before ordering — Dana model number is usually cast into the axle housing.
Installation notes
Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces of both differential housing and cover — remove all old gasket residue and RTV. Check for damage or irregularities in the sealing surfaces. Fit the new gasket dry or with light coating of gasket maker as preferred. Tighten the mounting bolts in a cross pattern with even torque to prevent distortion.
Compatibility
Does NOT fit Dana 41 or Dana 44 axles — these require a different gasket with different dimensions and bolt pattern. Check your differential model number before ordering. Dana 25 was used in the front axle, Dana 27 in the rear axle of MB/GPW, Dana 30 in later CJ models.
Historical context
The Dana (Spicer) 25, 27 and 30 axles were standard equipment on WWII Willys MB and Ford GPW jeeps and subsequent military and civilian variants. The robust design of these full-floating axles made them eminently suitable for heavy off-road military applications.
