Application
For use in 8 3/4" (8.75 inch) differential. Fits 1/2 ton WC vehicles (1940-1942, models WC1 through WC50) and early 3/4 ton WC lorries (early production with small 8 3/4" axle housing). Used as differential or axle shaft carrier bearing in front and rear axles.
Installation notes
This is an oil bath bearing — pack the bearing rings with high-quality bearing grease during assembly, but account for the differential oil system. Ensure correct bearing preload adjustment values according to technical manual. Use appropriate tooling for pressing bearing cups into axle housing.
Compatibility
IMPORTANT: This bearing fits the 8 3/4" (8.75 inch) differentials. Early 3/4 ton WC models had this smaller 8 3/4" axle housing, later production received the larger 9 5/8" axle housing — these are NOT interchangeable. Check your differential diameter before ordering. Cup 46368 also fits with cone 46143, 46175 or 46176.
Historical context
The 8 3/4" rear axle was used in Dodge WC 1/2 ton vehicles (G-505 series, 1940-1942) and early 3/4 ton models. Later 3/4 ton production received the reinforced 9 5/8" rear axle.
