Carrier Shims Dana 60

The RATECH Carrier Shims Dana 60 (MPN 1106) is a precision steel differential shim kit engineered for Dana 60, 70, 70-HD, and 70-U axle assemblies. These shims are essential components for mechanics and enthusiasts performing differential maintenance, repair, or rebuild operations on heavy-duty rear axles. Carrier shims control bearing preload and axle centerline geometry, making them critical for proper drivetrain performance and longevity.

Manufactured from durable steel in natural finish, the Carrier Shims Dana 60 withstand the extreme pressures and torque loads inherent in Dana 60 and Dana 70 differentials. The shim stack design allows technicians to fine-tune carrier bearing preload with precision, ensuring correct backlash settings and smooth power transfer. At just 0.11 lbs and measuring 3.75 x 0.85 x 3.85 inches, this kit provides a compact yet complete solution for differential setup and adjustment during rebuild procedures.

Professional differential rebuilders, off-road enthusiasts, and fleet maintenance teams rely on quality shim kits to restore proper axle geometry and eliminate noise or vibration. Installation requires removal and inspection of the differential carrier, making this product ideal for complete rebuilds or bearing preload corrections on trucks and heavy-duty vehicles equipped with Dana 60 or Dana 70 axles. Proper shimming directly impacts ring-and-pinion mesh, bearing life, and overall drivetrain reliability.
