Application
Applicable to Dodge WC series vehicles with T214 engine (230 cu.in./3.8L six-cylinder). The T214 engine flywheel uses a 146-tooth ring gear, which differs from some earlier Dodge models. This ring gear is fitted to the outer circumference of the flywheel via a shrink fit connection.
Installation notes
Fitting requires specialist tools. The ring gear must be heated (thermal expansion) to approximately 200-250°C to be able to slide over the flywheel. On cooling, the ring shrinks and forms a tight fitting connection. Note correct orientation: the chamfered side of the teeth must face towards the starter motor for smooth engagement of the bendix. Check alignment with starter motor bendix after fitting.
Compatibility
Specific to Dodge T214 engine with 146-tooth flywheel. Not interchangeable with earlier Dodge engines using different tooth counts (e.g. T207 with different specification). Note: some late production T214 engines (1960s rebuilds) had different ring gears. Always check the number of teeth on your original ring gear before ordering.
Historical context
The Dodge T214 engine was used in the WC series 3⁄4-ton lorries during and after WWII. The 146-tooth ring gear was a standard component of the flywheel-clutch system on this robust 230 cubic inch six-cylinder engine.
