Frequently Asked Questions
FTC3269 forms the central cast carrier for the differential assembly; it houses the internal gears and bearing seats, provides the machined faces and bearing bores for the crownwheel and pinion, and supports the axle shafts. On the front axle it positions the bevel gears so torque is shared between the two shafts and provides sealing surfaces to retain lubricant and keep contaminants out. When replacing the case, correct orientation and matching of bearing and seal sizes is required to preserve gear alignment and bearing preload.
