Features
- Pivot pin for both shift levers
- Fitted with thread for grease fitting (zerk)
- Groove for set screw on inside
- Grease fitting must be mounted on outside
- Reproduction to original specifications
★ High-quality reproduction to original specifications. Regular lubrication via the zerk considerably extends service life and prevents the levers from working loose.
Application
For vehicles with Dana 18 transfer case featured in the categories where this product is offered. Please note: there are two different versions of the pivot pin (early drive-in style and late screw-in style). Check your transfer case before ordering.
Installation notes
The end with the thread for the grease fitting (zerk) is mounted on the outside. The groove is intended for the set screw on the inside. The pin is secured on the inside with a set screw. Please note: current reproductions typically have metric thread for the zerk, whilst original pins had standard thread.
Compatibility
Only suitable for Dana 18 transfer cases. Not interchangeable with the early drive-in style pin used in early Brown-Lipe Model 18 transfer cases. That earlier pin has a ring to catch the end of the stay bolt and does not fit later versions. Check beforehand which version your transfer case has.
Historical context
The Dana 18 transfer case, also known as Brown-Lipe or Spicer 18, was manufactured by Watson Transmission Brown-Lipe Gear Division in Toledo, Ohio. This transfer case was used from the war years through to the 1970s and formed the backbone of the 4WD system in military and civilian Jeeps.
