★ Quality tapered roller bearing for the early small differential, manufactured to original specifications for correct fitment and durability.
Application
Specifically for Dodge WC ½ ton 4x4 (1941-1942) and early WC ¾ ton 4x4/6x6 vehicles equipped with the small 8¾" differential. Used in both front and rear axles. Not suitable for later WC ¾ ton models with larger differential.
Installation notes
Tapered roller bearings must always be fitted in opposed pairs. Correct adjustment of axial clearance is critical — this is achieved by adjusting the axial distance between the cones or cups of the two opposed bearings. Cone and cup can be fitted separately.
Compatibility
Only suitable for early small differentials (8¾"). Please note: Dodge WC ½ ton 4x4 and early ¾ ton use this small differential. Later ¾ ton WC lorries and larger differentials use different bearings. Verification of differential diameter is essential for correct component selection.
Historical context
The 28580-28521 tapered roller bearing was standard equipment in the early Dodge WC military lorries from WWII, used in both the front and rear differential of the compact 8¾" version.
