Ultimate Dana 44 AdvanTEK^® Front Axles

Spicer^® Nickel Chromoly Axle Shafts
The Spicer nickel chromoly axle shafts provide even greater strength for confidence on the trail.

Extended Service Ball Joint Kit
Dana's genuine Spicer^® ball joints are a metal-on-metal design and include a grease zerk for serviceability and extended life. Our new ball joint kit includes one upper and one lower ball joint, nuts, and cotter pins – everything needed to service the front left or front right of the Jeep^® Gladiator. The kit is ideal for use with larger rims and tires.

Spicer^® Driveshafts for Ultimate Performance
Spicer^® 1350 series driveshafts are engineered as a direct bolt-in solution that deliver increased strength, and feature several upgrades designed for added durability on the trail. The driveshafts feature Spicer Life Series^® 1350 "lube for life" universal joints.

Spicer^® Nodular Iron Performance Differential Cover
Dana's performance differential covers are engineered for greater housing rigidity. Manufactured from high-strength nodular iron, Spicer^® performance differential covers are built with ribbing to protect differential components from off-road hazards.

Spicer^® Blue-Coated Performance U-Joints
Spicer blue-coated performance u-joints are coated with a high-performance, high-durability blue coating for corrosion protection and have been durability tested using a 45-hour mud bath to simulate harsh road conditions.

Spicer Ring and Pinion Gearing
Spicer gearing offers easy set-up, a quieter ride, and a lifespan up to double that of non-genuine parts. The surface treatment on Spicer^® ring and pinion gearing creates a quieter gear, and highly sophisticated manufacturing processes mean that Spicer gears usually set up with a proper pattern on the first attempt.
